When using fall arrest, free fall must be kept at or below how many feet

1 answer:

5 0

6 feet
Explanation: A few extra feet of free fall can significantly increase the arresting force on the employee, possibly to the point of causing injury. Because of this, the free fall distance should be kept at a minimum, and, as required by the standard, in no case greater than 6 feet (1.8 m).

A pressure cylinder has an outer diameter 200 mm, maximum external pressure 4 MPa, and maximum allowable shear stress 27.5 MPa.

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The minimum value of wall thickness t=3.63 mm.

Explanation:

Given:

D=200 mm

P=4 MPa

t= Wall thickness

maximum shear stress=27.5 MPa

We know that

hoop stress $\sigma _{h}=\frac{Pd}{2t}$

Longitudinal stress $\sigma _{l}=\frac{Pd}{4t}$

So maximum shear tress in plane $\tau _{max}=\dfrac{\sigma _h-\sigma _l}{2}$

$\tau _{max}=\dfrac{Pd}{8t}$

Now by putting the value

$27.5=\dfrac{4\times 200}{8t}$

So t=3.36 mm

The minimum value of wall thickness t=3.63 mm.
