1. A cylindrical steel container 8m high and 3m in diameter is reinforced with two hoops a meter from each end. If the contained liquid is gasoline (0.87), determine the: a) normal force acting on the wall of the tank b) with an allowable stress of 0.12 GPa, compute the thickness of the steel required. Dear expert, I have answer to the total hydrostatic force which is F=819.3312. I also have answer to the tension of hoop at the bottom (T=295.869) and the top (T=113.769). But no one has helped me find the normal force and thickness of steel required. Please help me, thank you.
