Consider a cylindrical container with semi-circular sides and an extended rectangular back as shown in the accompanying figure. If the all parts of the container are fabricated from the same then sheet-metal stock, determine the angle α of the rectangular back relative to the vertical when the container is at rest on a horizontal surface.

4.A thin-walled cylindrical column carries a weightless arch and is loaded as shown in Figure 4. The column has an internal diameter of 250 mm with a thickness of 2 mm Given: E-200 GPa and 0.3 The answer to each part of the question is to be used for subsequent parts (a)Determine the stresses on the outer surface of the cylinder at points A and B due to (8 marks) (b) Determine the minimum internal pressure p required if the...
Consider a cylindrical capacitor like that shown in Fig. 24.6. Let d = rb − ra be the spacing between the inner and outer conductors. (a) Let the radii of the two conductors be only slightly different, so that d << ra. Show that the result derived in Example 24.4 (Section 24.1) for the capacitance of a cylindrical capacitor then reduces to Eq. (24.2), the equation for the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor, with A being the surface area of...
