- Homework Statement
- This is not a homework problem. I am struggling with a formula for the inner area of semicircular sphere, mentioned in a book
- Relevant Equations
- Area = ## 2 \pi . r . t ##
where, r is the radius of the sphere and t is the thickness of its wall.
The formula is shown at the bootom of picture 1.
The pages shown in the pictures are from an engineering book. I am not sure how the thickness of sphere plays a role in the inner surface of the sphere. I know that the surface area of sphere is ##4 \pi r^2 ## .
Picture 2 shows how that formula plays a role in understanding the stress expereinced by the sphere. I am not sure how the thickness, t, of the sphere wall is relevant here.
Thanks
