Alarge spherical tank (see gure) contains gas at a pressure of 420 psi. the tank is 45 ft in diameter and is constructed of high-strength steel having a yield stress in tension of 80 ksi. (a) determine the required thickness (to the nearest 1/4 inch) of the wall of the tank if a factor of safety of 3.5 with respect to yielding is required. (b) if the tank wall thickness is 2.25 in., what is the maximum permissible internal pressure?
