6. A cylindrical pressure vessel has an inner diameter of 9 ft and a thickness of 1 in determine the maximum internal pressure it can sustain so that neither its circumferential nor its longitudinal stres component exceeds 20 ksi. Under the same conditions, what is the maximum internal pressure that a similar-size spherical vessel can sustain?
