    The force-displacement data and photos of the Perimeter shear tests must be included in  

    • IAD

    • SES

    • Design spec sheet

    • Design Report

    Correct Answer
    A. SES
    Explanation
    The force-displacement data and photos of the Perimeter shear tests must be included in the SES (Structural Engineering Software) as it is a comprehensive software program that allows engineers to analyze and design structural systems. Including the test data and photos in the SES will provide a complete and accurate representation of the shear tests and allow for more accurate analysis and design of the structure.

    During the driver change I may

    • Change to wet tires, if the track is damp.

    • Turn off the master switch

    • Lift the front of the car to adjust the pedal assembly

    • Do all of these things

    Correct Answer
    A. Do all of these things
    Explanation
    During the driver change, it is necessary to adapt to the current track conditions. If the track is damp, changing to wet tires would be the appropriate choice to ensure better traction. Additionally, turning off the master switch is necessary to prevent any electrical issues during the driver change. Lastly, lifting the front of the car to adjust the pedal assembly might be required to ensure the new driver's comfort and proper control of the car. Therefore, the correct answer is to do all of these things.

    • SFI 45.15

    • SFI 8867-2001

    • SFI 45.1

    • SFI 8857-2000

    Correct Answer
    A. SFI 45.1
    Explanation
    The correct answer is SFI 45.1. This is because SFI 45.1 is a specific standard for roll bar paddings that is allowed in FSAE (Formula SAE) competitions. The other options mentioned, SFI 45.15, SFI 8867-2001, and SFI 8857-2000, are not specifically mentioned as allowed standards for roll bar paddings in FSAE.

    When the maximum allowed displacement of an IC Engine is 610ccm, what is the maximum allowed stroke on a 5 cylinder with a bore of 62.13 mm ?

    • 41.38mm

    • 39.87mm

    • 40.24mm

    • 42.56mm

    Correct Answer
    A. 40.24mm
    Explanation
    The maximum allowed displacement of an IC Engine is calculated by multiplying the bore (diameter of the cylinder) squared by the stroke (distance the piston travels in the cylinder). In this case, we are given the maximum allowed displacement (610ccm) and the bore (62.13mm). To find the maximum allowed stroke, we can rearrange the formula and solve for it. By dividing the maximum allowed displacement by the bore squared, we get the maximum allowed stroke. Plugging in the given values, we find that the maximum allowed stroke is 40.24mm.

  • 12. 

    The length of the rear track of the vehicle could be

    • 5/3 of front track

    • 3/5 of front track

    • 16/25 of front track

    • 8/7 of front track

    Correct Answer
    A. 8/7 of front track
    Explanation
    The length of the rear track of a vehicle is 8/7 of the front track. This means that the rear track is longer than the front track. The ratio of 8/7 indicates that for every 8 units of length in the front track, there are 7 units of length in the rear track. This suggests that the rear track extends further outwards from the center of the vehicle compared to the front track.

    • Width of lap belt

    • Width of shoulder straps

    • All above are different in each case

    Correct Answer
    A. No.of anti-submarine straps
    Explanation
    The number of anti-submarine straps is the only option that remains consistent across all three types of BELT systems. The width of the lap belt and shoulder straps may vary in each case, but the number of anti-submarine straps remains the same.

    The teams that miss there cost appointment will loose

    • 10 points per day

    • Zero Points

    • Maximum 80 points

    • - 100 Points

    Correct Answer
    A. - 100 Points
    Explanation
    Teams that miss their cost appointment will be penalized with a deduction of 100 points. This suggests that there is a severe consequence for not attending the cost appointment, indicating the importance of attending and fulfilling this obligation. The other options of 10 points per day, zero points, and maximum 80 points do not reflect the severity of the penalty as -100 points does.

    Which one is not a positive locking mechanism according to the rules?

    • Safety wire

    • Lock washer

    • Nylon lock nut

    • Cotter pin

    Correct Answer
    A. Cotter pin
    Explanation
    A cotter pin is not a positive locking mechanism because it is a type of fastener that is used to secure two components together temporarily. It is not designed to provide a permanent or secure lock, as it can easily be removed or become loose over time. In contrast, safety wire, lock washers, and nylon lock nuts are all positive locking mechanisms that are specifically designed to prevent loosening or separation of components.

    Which of the following gasses is allowed as a working gas in a pressurised gas cylinder?  

    • Oxygen

    • Hellium

    • Hydogen

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Hellium
    Explanation
    Helium is allowed as a working gas in a pressurized gas cylinder. Oxygen and hydrogen are not suitable as working gases in pressurized cylinders due to their high reactivity and potential for combustion. Helium, on the other hand, is chemically inert and has low reactivity, making it safe to use in pressurized gas cylinders.

    Rate this question:

  • 21. 

    If Fuel Tank Filler Neck is at a maximum possible angle from vertical, the possible least vertical height above top-level of the tank is

    • 125mm

    • 1.5inch

    • 12.5inch

    • None

    Correct Answer
    A. 125mm
    Explanation
    If the fuel tank filler neck is at a maximum possible angle from the vertical, it means that the neck is tilted to its maximum extent. In this scenario, the least vertical height above the top level of the tank would be 125mm. This implies that the filler neck is at its highest point, resulting in a minimum vertical distance between the top level of the tank and the filler neck.

    Rate this question:

  • 22. 

    Minimum total field of vision of driver is

    • 200° excluding mirrors(if any)

    • 100° excluding mirrors(if any)

    • 200° including mirrors(if any)

    • 100° including mirrors(if any)

    Correct Answer
    A. 200° including mirrors(if any)
    Explanation
    The minimum total field of vision of a driver is 200° including mirrors (if any). This means that the driver should be able to see a wide range of the surroundings, including both the front and sides of the vehicle, as well as any objects or vehicles in the rearview mirrors. Having a 200° field of vision helps the driver to be aware of potential hazards and make safe driving decisions.

    Rate this question:

  • 23. 

    The ground clearance of an FSAE vehicle has to be (at least):

    • 25.4mm

    • Sufficient

    • Zero if e.g. sliding skirts are used.

    • 50.8mm

    Correct Answer
    A. 50.8mm
    Explanation
    The ground clearance of an FSAE vehicle has to be at least 50.8mm. This is because having a higher ground clearance allows for better maneuverability and prevents the vehicle from scraping or getting stuck on uneven surfaces. It also provides enough space for the suspension system to work effectively and absorb any shocks or vibrations from the road. Therefore, a ground clearance of 50.8mm is necessary to ensure the vehicle's performance and safety.

    Rate this question:

    The team that submits design spec sheet 7 days later than deadline could score maximum ....... in design event

    • 80

    • 180

    • 50

    • 0

    Correct Answer
    A. 180
    Explanation
    The team that submits the design spec sheet 7 days later than the deadline could score a maximum of 180 in the design event. This suggests that there may be a penalty or deduction for late submission, resulting in a lower score. The maximum score of 180 indicates that the team can still achieve a high score if they submit their design spec sheet within the specified time frame.
