Answer: 33 mm
Explanation:
Given
Diameter of the tank, d = 9 m, so that, radius = d/2 = 9/2 = 4.5 m
Internal pressure of gas, P(i) = 1.5 MPa
Yield strength of steel, P(y) = 340 MPa
Factor of safety = 0.3
Allowable stress = 340 * 0.3 = 102 MPa
σ = pr / 2t, where
σ = allowable stress
p = internal pressure
r = radius of the tank
t = minimum wall thickness
t = pr / 2σ
t = 1.5*10^6 * 4.5 / 2 * 102*10^6
t = 0.033 m
t = 33 mm
The minimum thickness of the wall required is therefore, 33 mm
Answer: Taxpayers
Explanation:
Taking alcohol before driving or while driving is dangerous and has resulted in lots of accidents and deaths. Alcohol tampers with the normal functioning of the brain, and also impairs ones reasoning.
Alcohol impaired driving cases handled by government officials are paid for by the taxpayers. A tax is the levy that the people in the country pays. Those funds are used in handling different government objectives and this is one of such ways.
Answer:
4939200 m
Explanation:
v = Velocity of sound in air = 343 m/s (general value)
For the echo to reach Rip van Winkle it must cover the distance to the mountain twice. So, time taken for the sound traveling to the mountain once
Distance is given by
The distance to the mountain is 4939200 m
