A cylindrical steel pressure vessel 500 mm in diameter with a wall thickness of 25 mm, is subjected to an internal pressure of 5.25 MPa. (a) Calculate the tangential stress in the steel (b) Solve for the longitudinal stresses in the steel. (c) To what value may the internal pressure be increased if the stress in the steel is limited to 125 MPa
