Design the optimal cylindrical tank with dished ends (Fig. P16.3). The container is to hold 0.5 m3 and has walls of negligible thickness. Note that the area and volume of each of the dished ends can be computed with Figure P16.3

(a) Design the tank so that surface area is minimized. Interpret the result.
(b) Repeat part (a), but add the constraint L ( 2h?
