Question: Two questions about the shape of a soda can!.!?
1!. why is the bottom of a soda can bowed inward!? please explain in details!.
2!. why is the top of a soda can designed to be narrower than the body of the can!?

i am very curious about why soda cans are designed in this way!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Both are to make the cans easier to stack!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Some people also have used the concave can bottom as a lens to reflect sunlight and start a fire w/o using any matches!. I've seen articles where people use things like chocolate bars and rags to polish the bottom until it shines!.
!.!.!.Although this probably isn't why the cans were made that way lol!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
