Answer:

Here we can go for trial and error,

Taking x=6

So equation will be 6*6-18 which gives 18

and is not equal to 54

So it's, not 6

Trying 12

6*12-18

Which is 54 and so correct answer is x=12

Answer:

1) Increase in the diameter equals 3.5 mm

2) Increase in the length equals $0.0003724L_{i}$ where $L_{i}$ is the initial length of the vessel.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diametric strain in the vessel is given by

$\epsilon_{D} =\epsilon_{diam}-\nu \epsilon _{axial}$

We have

$\epsilon _{diam}=\frac{\sigma _{hoop}}{E}\\\\\sigma _{hoop}=\frac{\Delta P\times D}{2t}\\\\\therefore \epsilon _{diam}=\frac{\Delta P\times D}{2t\times E}$

Applying values we get

$\therefore \epsilon _{diam}=\frac{5\times 10^{6}\times 2.5}{2\times 20\times 10^{-3}\times 193\times 10^{9}}\\\\\therefore \epsilon _{diam}=\frac{5}{3088}$

Similarly axial strain is given by

$\epsilon _{diam}=\frac{\sigma _{axial}}{E}$

$\sigma _{axial}=\frac{\Delta P\times D}{4t}\\\\\therefore \epsilon _{axial}=\frac{\Delta P\times D}{4t\times E}$

Applying values we get

$\therefore \epsilon _{axial}=\frac{5\times 10^{6}\times 2.5}{4\times 20\times 10^{-3}\times 193\times 10^{9}}\\\\\therefore \epsilon _{diam}=\frac{2.5}{3088}$
