You have been assigned to design an open cylindrical storage tank 4 meters tall with a diameter of 8 meters to be made out of A-36 steel. The tank will hold a fluid with density of rho = 1.2 g/cm^3 (or 1200 kg/m^3 ). Using a safety factor of 4, what wall thickness is required?

Aquick transition of the operating speed of a shaft from its critical speed will whirl amplitude. (a) increase (b) limit (c) not affect (d) zero

Asimple rankine cycle uses water as the working fluid. the water enters the turbine at 10 mpa and 480c while the condenser operates at 6 kpa. if the turbine has an isentropic efficiency of 80 percent while the pump has an isentropic efficiency of 70 percent determine the thermal efficiency

For a gate width of 2 m into the paper, determine the force required to hold the gate abc at its location.
