A chemistry graduate student is designing a pressure vessel for an experiment. The vessel will contain gases at pressures up to 360.0 MPa. The student's design calls for an observation port on the side of the vessel (see diagram below). The bolts that hold the cover of this port onto the vessel can safely withstand a force of 4.30 MN. pressure vessel bolts Or port Calculate the maximum safe diameter w of the port.
