A cylindrical tank for transporting compressed gas has an inside diameter of 370 mm and a wall thickness of 4 mm. If the tank is made of steel that can withstand a tensile stress of 270 MPa, determine the maximum gas pressure that the tank can contain.

The y form of iron is known as: a) ferrite b) cementite c) perlite d) austenite

Steel is coated with a thin layer of ceramic to protect against corrosion. what do you expect to happen to the coating when the temperature of the steel is increased significantly? explain.

Apipe with an outside diameter of 15 cm is exposed to an ambient air and surrounding temperature of -20°c. the pipe has an outer surface temperature of 65°c and an emissivity of 0.85. if the rate of heat loss from the pipe surface is 0.95 kw per meter of length, the external convective heat transfer coefficient (h) is: (a) 12.5 w/m"k (b) 18.6 w/mk (c) 23.7 w/mk (d) 27.9 w/mk (e) 33.5 w/mk
