8. An inflatable structure used by a traveling circus has the shape of a half-circular cylinder with elee t (see figure). The fabric and plastic structure is inflated by a small blower and has a radius of 12 m whs nds inflated. A longitudinal seam runs the entire length of the "ridge" of the structure. If the longitudinal seam along the ridge tears open when it is subjected to a tensile load of 100 Niee seam, what is the factor of safety n against tearing when the internal pressure is 3.5 kPa and the st of fully inflated? Longitudinal seam
