So, an engineering question from a mere academic.

When a doctor puts one pound per square inch pressure on the thumb plate of a syringe, what is the pressure at the tip of the needle?

When the pressure inside a cylinder of an IO 520 is 800 pounds per square inch, what is the pressure on the surface area of the thread between the head and the barrel?
