A single strain gage forming an angle B = 18° with a horizontal
plane is used to determine the gage pressure in the cylindrical
steel tank shown. The cylindrical wall of the tank is 6 mm thick,
has a 600-mm inside diameter, and is made of a steel with
E = 200 GPa and v = 0.30. Determine the pressure in the tank
indicated by a strain gage reading of 280 microns.
