Answer:
B) 5.05
Explanation:
The wall thickness of a pipe is the difference between the diameter of outer wall and the diameter of inner wall divided by 2. It is given by:
Thickness of pipe = (Outer wall diameter - Inner wall diameter) / 2
Given that:
Inner diameter = ID = 25 ± 0.05, Outer diameter = OD = 35 ± 0.05
Maximum outer diameter = 35 + 0.05 = 35.05
Minimum inner diameter = 25 - 0.05 = 24.95
Thickness of pipe = (maximum outer wall diameter - minimum inner wall diameter) / 2 = (35.05 - 24.95) / 2 = 5.05
or
Thickness = (35 - 25) / 2 + 0.05 = 10/2 + 0.05 = 5 + 0.05 = 5.05
Therefore the LMC wall thickness is 5.05
