Question: ( 2 0 Points ) The spherical pressure vessel is constructed from two hemispheres bolted together at the equator. The outside diameter is 1 0

(20 Points) The spherical pressure vessel is constructed from two hemispheres
bolted together at the equator. The outside diameter is 10ft and is made of a
material for which the allowable stress is allow=25ksi. The bolts used to secure
the two halves have an allowable stress of 16ksi and a diameter d=1 inch. If
the maximum internal pressure is 3200 psi, determine the minimum required
wall thickness and the number of bolts required.
