Engineers are considering two possible vessel shapes for storing
fuel. One shape is cylindrical and the other is spherical. Each
vessel would be constructed out of the same material such that its
hoop stresses and longitudinal stresses would be no greater than
17.0 ksiksi . The cylindrical pressure vessel has an
inside diameter of dcdcdc = 30.0 inin and a
thickness of tctctc = 0.500 inin . The
spherical pressure vessel has an inside diameter
of dsdsds = 30.0 inin and a thickness
of tststs = 0.250 inin .
