Question
A compressed air tank is supported by two cradles as shown in the figure. One of the cradles is designed so that it does not exert any longitudinal force on the tank. The cylindrical body of the tank has a 30in outer diameter and is fabricated from a 3/8in steel plate by butt welding along the helix that forms an angle of 25° with a transverse plane. The end caps are spherical and have a uniform wall thickness of 5/16in. For an internal gauge pressure of 180 psi.
Determine
a. The normal stress in the spherical caps
b. The maximum shearing stress in the spherical caps
c. The stresses in directions perpendicular and parallel to the helical weld using Mohr’s circle.

Summary
The question belongs to Physics and it discusses about calculation of normal stresses, maximum shearing stress and stresses in directions perpendicular and parallel to helical weld in spherical caps.

The day when my professor asked us to start preparing a Research Proposal I approached HwA for help. I was already taking their help for my other assignments as well, but never thought that they had a strong research proposal writing and dissertation writing support. Really impressed with the kind of feedback I got in my Research Proposal.
When I saw the prices for civil engineering online tutoring with HwA I was not really sure what the quality of the tutoring would be like. But I was very impressed by the panel of civil engineering tutors at HwA and have already greatly benefited from the online tutoring sessions on Urban Engineering and Structural Analysis.
1. Process control assignments in chemical engineering were a very difficult challenge for me. I was totally unsure about the application of laplace transform and differential equation in chemistry. Then I came across HwA and their experts are truly knowledgeable. She helped me with my assignments and showed, actually how easy it is.
Your Team saved me from failing by helping me at the last minute. Thanks guys!
After I moved to Australia to study Computer Science and Engineering, I found out that the things are quite different than what it used to be in the Indian universities. The course structure is much more practical oriented and thus the numbers of assignments are also more. I was clueless and was struggling to cope when I came across HwA. Thanks to them I got through my first two semesters with good grades and that boosted my confidence. Now I am pursuing my post-graduation from a Queensland based reputed technology university and still taking help from HwA.

this is a very good website
I have 50 questions for the same test your page is showing only 28
hi can you please help or guide me to answer my assignments. thanks
hi can anyone help or guide me to my assignments. thanks
This solution is perfect ...thanks
Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
