A typical aluminum-alloy scuba diving tank is shown in the figure. The outside diameter of the tank is 165mm and the wall thickness is 15mm. If the air in the tank is pressurized to 18.0MPa, determine: (a) the longitudinal and hoop stresses in the wall of the tank. (b) the maximum shear stress in the plane of the cylinder wall. (c) the absolute maximum shear stress on the outer surface of the cylindrical wall.
