A pipeline with an outside diameter of 500 mm and a wall thickness of 10 mm is pressurized to 1.8 MPa. Due to thermal expansion, a compressive force of 34 kN is generated along the length of the pipes. Determine the normal stress along the length of the pipes. Ignore the bending stresses due to the weight of the pipes and the fluid that they contain.

A tank with an inside diameter of 330 mm, a length of 700 mm, and a wall thickness of 2.9 mm was designed to withstand a pressure of 650 kPa. If the outside of the tank has corroded such that the thickness is now 82% of the original value, what should the pressure now be limited to?

A tank with an inside diameter of 355 mm, a length of 845 mm, and a wall thickness of 2.0 mm was designed to withstand a pressure of 755 kPa. If the outside of the tank has corroded such that the thickness is now 80% of the original value, what should the pressure now be limited to?

The pressure hull of a space station module has an inside diameter of 4.4 m, a length of 5.8 m, and a wall thickness of 2.7 mm. It is made from an aluminum alloy with a yield strength of 273 MPa. If the hull is successfully pressure tested to 190 kPa on Earth, determine the factor of safety with respect to yielding.
