Help on Mechanics of Materials question?

A 2024-T4 aluminum tube with an outside diameter of 3 inwill be used to support a 27-kip loadIf the axial stress in the member must be limited to 8.9 ksi, determine the wall thickness required for the tube.

Answer:

bette baked- 4 1/2-inch to 1-inch pork chops 1 cup Italian Dressing or any favorite vinegar and oil dressing 3 eggs 1/2 cup milk 1cup Italian Style seasoned bread crumbs 1/2 cup of flour Marinate pork chops in dressing for 2 hours turning every 30 minutesPre-heat oven to 375 degrees FBeat eggs and milk together in a pie plate and in another pie plate, combine bread crumbs and flourDip pork chops one at a time in the egg wash and then dredge in the bread crumb mixture coating all sides and place on a baking sheetBake for 45 to 60 minutes depending upon thickness of pork chops.
Stress in a member from an axial load is derived from the following relation: σ P / A where σ is the axial stress, P is the load on the member, and A is the cross-sectional area of the memberNow, the cross-sectional area for a tube is given by the following relationship: A π (r_o^2 - r_i^2) π (d_o^2 - d_i^2) / 4 where r_o is the outside radius of the tube and r_i is the inside radiusSolve the first equation for the required cross-sectional areaThen, with the second equation, solve for the required inside diameterNow, the wall thickness of the tube can be expressed as: d_i d_o - 2t where t is the wall thicknessNow, you can solve for the required wall thicknessI calculated the wall thickness to be 0.367-inch.
You can't steam in a Dutch Oven, but you can braise, and they will be wonderfully moist.
