    The forces, which meet at one point and their lines of action also lie on the same plane, are known as

    • Coplaner concurrent forces

    • Coplaner non-concurrent forces

    • Non-coplaner concurrent forces

    • Non-coplaner non-concurrent forces

    Correct Answer
    A. Coplaner concurrent forces
    Explanation
    Coplaner concurrent forces are forces that meet at one point and their lines of action also lie on the same plane. This means that the forces are not only acting at the same point, but they are also acting in the same plane. This is in contrast to coplaner non-concurrent forces, which may also lie on the same plane but do not meet at one point. Non-coplaner concurrent forces refer to forces that meet at one point but their lines of action do not lie on the same plane. Non-coplaner non-concurrent forces are forces that neither meet at one point nor lie on the same plane.

    Which of the following is/are used in synchronous machines to maintain mechanical stability?

    • Damper winding

    • Interpole winding

    • Compensating winding

    • Equalizer rings

    Correct Answer
    A. Damper winding
    Explanation
    A damper winding is used in synchronous machines to maintain mechanical stability. It consists of short-circuited conductors placed in slots on the rotor. When the rotor experiences mechanical disturbances, such as sudden changes in load or faults, the damper winding helps to dampen the oscillations and stabilize the machine. This is achieved by inducing eddy currents in the conductors, which create a magnetic field that opposes the mechanical disturbances. By doing so, the damper winding helps to prevent excessive vibrations and maintain the mechanical integrity of the synchronous machine.

    The vertical distance between the axis of the beam before and after loading at a point is called as 

    • Deformation

    • Deflection

    • Slope

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Deflection
    Explanation
    Deflection refers to the vertical distance between the axis of a beam before and after loading at a specific point. It is a measure of how much the beam bends or flexes under the applied load. Deformation, on the other hand, is a more general term that refers to any change in shape or size of an object. Slope is not the correct term in this context, as it typically refers to the inclination or steepness of a line or surface. Therefore, the correct answer is deflection.

    Which of these is NOT a part of a modern wind turbine?

    • Compressor

    • Gear box

    • Nacelle

    • Yaw drive

    Correct Answer
    A. Compressor
    Explanation
    A compressor is not a part of a modern wind turbine. Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy through the use of a rotor, which consists of blades connected to a hub. The blades capture the wind's energy and transfer it to the rotor, which is connected to a generator. The generator then converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy. The other options mentioned (gear box, nacelle, and yaw drive) are all components that are typically found in a modern wind turbine.

    • Conservative force

    • Dissipative force

    • Frictional force

    • Air resistance force

    Correct Answer
    A. Conservative force
    Explanation
    According to the principle of conservation of energy, the sum of potential energy (P.E) and kinetic energy (K.E) of a particle remains constant under the action of a conservative force. A conservative force is a type of force that does not dissipate or remove energy from the system. It can be stored as potential energy and converted into kinetic energy without any loss. Examples of conservative forces include gravitational force and elastic force.

    The centre of gravity of a quadrant of a circle lies along its central radius (r) at a distance of?

    • 0.5r

    • 0.6r

    • 0.7r

    • 0.8r

    Correct Answer
    A. 0.6r
    Explanation
    The center of gravity of a quadrant of a circle lies along its central radius at a distance of 0.6r. This is because the center of gravity of any symmetrical shape lies along its axis of symmetry, which in this case is the central radius. The distance from the center of gravity to the center of the circle is determined by dividing the length of the central radius by the ratio of the area of the quadrant to the area of the entire circle, which is 1/4. Therefore, the distance is 0.6 times the length of the central radius.

    Work done by an engine in 6 sec is 1000 joules. What is the power generated by the engine in watt? 

    • 1600 watt

    • 600 watt

    •  600 watt

    • 166 watt

    Correct Answer
    A. 166 watt
    Explanation
    The power generated by an engine can be calculated using the formula: Power = Work done / Time taken. In this case, the work done by the engine is given as 1000 joules and the time taken is 6 seconds. Therefore, the power generated by the engine is 1000 joules / 6 seconds = 166 watts.

    Which axial force is determined while analyzing a truss? 

    •  compressive force

    • Tensile force

    • Both a. and b.

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Both a. and b.
    Explanation
    When analyzing a truss, both compressive force and tensile force are determined. Compressive force refers to the force that pushes or compresses the structural members of the truss, while tensile force refers to the force that pulls or stretches the members. Both types of forces need to be considered in order to accurately analyze the axial forces acting on the truss.

    To design the space trusses which of the following rules is followed?

    • All the loads are applied by the use of cables

    • The loads are applied at the joints

    • All the loads are not applied at the joints

    • The loads are not applied at all to the joints

    Correct Answer
    A. The loads are applied at the joints
    Explanation
    In the design of space trusses, the loads are applied at the joints. This means that the forces and external loads are concentrated at the connection points between the truss members. By applying the loads at the joints, the truss structure can efficiently distribute and transfer the forces throughout the entire system. This design approach ensures that the truss can effectively withstand and support the applied loads without excessive stress concentrations or structural failures.

    What is after taking the assumption of the direction of the force in space trusses, the direction comes opposite?

    • The assumption made was wrong and the question can’t be solved further

    • The assumptions are not to be taken

    • The direction is in the opposite sense, and hence the direction is known to us

    • The direction will be already given to us, no need of assuming

    Correct Answer
    A. The direction is in the opposite sense, and hence the direction is known to us
    Explanation
    When the assumption of the direction of the force in space trusses is made, and it turns out to be in the opposite sense, it means that the actual direction of the force is opposite to what was assumed. Therefore, the direction of the force is known to us because it is the opposite of the assumed direction. This suggests that the assumption made was incorrect and the question cannot be solved further based on that assumption.

    When the bridges are extended over long routes or distance then _________

    • A rocker or a roller is used at the joints

    • They are not extended to such a long distance

    • The bridges are painted

    • The roads are made narrow

    Correct Answer
    A. A rocker or a roller is used at the joints
    Explanation
    When bridges are extended over long routes or distances, a rocker or a roller is used at the joints. This is because when a bridge expands or contracts due to temperature changes or other factors, the joints need to be able to move freely to prevent structural damage. A rocker or a roller allows for this movement by providing a flexible connection between the bridge segments.

     Electromagnetic torque is present in rotating machines when

    • Both stator and rotor windings carry current

    • Rotor windings carry current

    • Stator windings carry current

    • Any of the mentioned

    Correct Answer
    A. Both stator and rotor windings carry current
    Explanation
    Electromagnetic torque is generated in rotating machines when both the stator and rotor windings carry current. This is because the interaction between the magnetic fields produced by the currents in the stator and rotor windings creates a force that causes the rotor to rotate. If only one of the windings carries current, there will be an imbalance in the magnetic fields, resulting in a reduced or no torque production. Therefore, for electromagnetic torque to be present, it is necessary for both the stator and rotor windings to carry current.

     Ward-Leonard system of system of speed control is not recommended for

    • Constant speed operation

    • Wide speed

    • Frequent-motor reversed

    • Very slow speed

    Correct Answer
    A. Constant speed operation
    Explanation
    The Ward-Leonard system of speed control is not recommended for constant speed operation because it is primarily designed for applications that require variable speed control. The system uses a motor-generator set to control the speed of the motor by varying the voltage and frequency. This allows for precise control over the motor's speed, making it ideal for applications where speed needs to be adjusted frequently. However, for constant speed operation, other simpler and more efficient control systems can be used instead.

    The range of control of controller __________ due to presence of offset. 

    • Increases

    • Decreases

    • Remains constant

    • Cannot say

    Correct Answer
    A. Decreases
    Explanation
    The range of control of the controller decreases due to the presence of offset. Offset refers to the difference between the desired setpoint and the actual process variable. When there is an offset, the controller needs to make adjustments to bring the process variable back to the setpoint. However, if the offset is present, it indicates that the controller is not able to fully control the process within the desired range. Therefore, the range of control decreases.

    Rate this question:

  • 26. 

    Mark the wrong option. Which of the following cause and effect behaviour in speed control is correct when field resistance is increased.

    • Decrease in flux

    • Decrease in flux

    • Increase in EMF

    • Decrease in speed

    Correct Answer
    A. Increase in EMF
    Explanation
    When the field resistance is increased in a speed control system, it leads to a decrease in the flux. This decrease in flux causes a decrease in the electromotive force (EMF) generated in the system. As a result, the speed of the system decreases. Therefore, the option "Increase in EMF" is incorrect as it contradicts the cause and effect relationship described above.

    The coupling angle or load angle of a synchronous motor is defined as the space angle between

    • Rotor and stator poles of opposite polarity

    • Rotor and stator poles of same polarity

    • Rotor and stator teeth

    • Rotor and resultant magnetic field

    Correct Answer
    A. Rotor and stator poles of opposite polarity
    Explanation
    The coupling angle or load angle of a synchronous motor is defined as the space angle between the rotor and stator poles of opposite polarity. This angle represents the phase difference between the rotor and stator magnetic fields, which is crucial for the motor's operation. By having opposite polarities, the rotor and stator poles attract each other, creating the necessary torque for the motor to rotate. Therefore, the coupling angle is determined by the positions of these opposite poles, indicating the alignment and interaction between the rotor and stator fields.

    Shifting of set point and adjusting its new value by the controller, when the value of disturbance increases, is called as_______. 

    • Set-shift

    • Offset

    • Stabilization

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Offset
    Explanation
    When the value of disturbance increases, the controller adjusts the set point by shifting it to a new value. This adjustment is known as offset. It allows the controller to maintain stability and compensate for the increased disturbance. The term "set-shift" is not commonly used in this context, and "stabilization" refers to the overall goal of maintaining stability rather than the specific action of adjusting the set point. Therefore, the correct answer is offset.

    The operation of a synchronous motor operating on constant excitation across infinite bus will not be stable if power angle δ

    • Exceeds internal angle θ

    • Is less than θ

    • Is more than θ/2

    • Is less than θ/2

    Correct Answer
    A. Exceeds internal angle θ
    Explanation
    If the power angle δ exceeds the internal angle θ, the operation of a synchronous motor operating on constant excitation across an infinite bus will not be stable. This means that the motor will not be able to maintain a steady and synchronized rotation with the power system. The power angle represents the phase difference between the rotor and stator magnetic fields, while the internal angle θ represents the angle between the rotor flux and the resultant air-gap flux. If the power angle exceeds the internal angle, it indicates a loss of synchronization and instability in the motor's operation.

    What does Heating and cooling of the atmosphere generates?

    • Thermo line circulation

    • Radiation currents

    • Convection currents

    • Conduction currents

    Correct Answer
    A. Convection currents
    Explanation
    Heating and cooling of the atmosphere generate convection currents. When the air near the Earth's surface is heated, it becomes less dense and rises, creating an upward flow of air. As the heated air rises, it cools down and becomes denser, eventually sinking back down to the surface. This continuous cycle of warm air rising and cool air sinking creates convection currents, which play a significant role in the movement of air and the distribution of heat throughout the atmosphere.

    The PWM control of DC motor varies

    • Linearly with speed

    • Inversely with speed

    • Parabolically with speed

    • Exponentially with speed

    Correct Answer
    A. Linearly with speed
    Explanation
    The PWM control of a DC motor varies linearly with speed because PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) is a technique that adjusts the average voltage applied to the motor by rapidly switching the power on and off. By varying the width of the pulses, the average voltage can be adjusted, which in turn controls the speed of the motor. As the width of the pulses increases, the average voltage and speed of the motor also increase in a linear relationship.

     Small DC motors have best speed control by

    • Armature voltage control

    • Field resistance control

    • Any of the methods

    • None of the mentioned

    Correct Answer
    A. Armature voltage control
    Explanation
    Armature voltage control provides the best speed control for small DC motors. By adjusting the voltage applied to the armature, the speed of the motor can be controlled effectively. This method allows for precise control over the motor's speed, making it ideal for applications where speed regulation is critical. Field resistance control, on the other hand, is not as effective in providing precise speed control. Therefore, the correct answer is armature voltage control.

    A 3-phase synchronous motor is connected to an ac main. The motor runs at full load and unity power factor. With field current held constant if its shaft load is reduced by half, its new power factor will be

    • Unity

    • Lagging

    • Leading

    • Dependent on machine parameters.

    Correct Answer
    A. Leading
    Explanation
    When the shaft load of a 3-phase synchronous motor is reduced by half while keeping the field current constant, the motor will operate at a leading power factor. This means that the current will lead the voltage in the circuit. This change in power factor occurs because the motor is now operating at a higher excitation level than before, causing the current to lead the voltage. The power factor of a synchronous motor is dependent on its excitation level, and reducing the shaft load while keeping the field current constant increases the excitation level, resulting in a leading power factor.

    Consider the below remarks for an alternator (i) An over excited machine is more stiff (ii) Machine with longer air-gap is less stable than one with smaller air-gap

    • (i) is True, (ii) is False

    • (i) is False, (ii) is True

    • (i) is True, (ii) is True

    • (i) is False, (ii) is False

    Correct Answer
    A. (i) is True, (ii) is False
    Explanation
    An over excited machine refers to an alternator where the field current is increased beyond the normal value, resulting in a stronger magnetic field. This increased magnetic field makes the machine more stiff, meaning it has a higher resistance to changes in its operating conditions. On the other hand, the stability of an alternator is influenced by the air-gap length. A machine with a longer air-gap is less stable compared to one with a smaller air-gap. Therefore, statement (i) is true because an over excited machine is indeed more stiff, while statement (ii) is false because a machine with a longer air-gap is less stable.

    The short circuit load losses is/are

    • Direct load loss and stray load losses

    • Direct load loss

    • Stray load losses

    • Field current loss

    Correct Answer
    A. Direct load loss and stray load losses
    Explanation
    The correct answer is direct load loss and stray load losses. Short circuit load losses refer to the losses that occur in a transformer when it is subjected to a short circuit condition. Direct load loss refers to the power loss that occurs in the resistance of the transformer windings when current flows through them. Stray load losses, on the other hand, refer to the losses that occur due to the leakage flux and eddy currents in the transformer's core and windings. Both direct load loss and stray load losses contribute to the overall short circuit load losses in a transformer.

    •  9.33 m/s

    Correct Answer
    A. 7.33 m/s
    Explanation
    The initial velocity of the object is given as 2 m/s. The force applied on the object is 40 N. Using Newton's second law of motion, force = mass x acceleration, we can calculate the acceleration of the object. Rearranging the formula, acceleration = force / mass. Plugging in the values, we get acceleration = 40 N / 30 kg = 4/3 m/s^2. To find the final velocity after 4 seconds, we can use the equation v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time. Plugging in the values, we get v = 2 m/s + (4/3 m/s^2) x 4 s = 2 m/s + 16/3 m/s = 22/3 m/s = 7.33 m/s. Therefore, the correct answer is 7.33 m/s.

    To carry a current of 0.3 amperes, a 100 ohm resistor is needed in an electric circuit. A resistor you would select is

    • 100 ohm, 7.5 watts

    • 100 ohm, 10 watts

    • 100 ohm, 1 watt

    • 100 ohm, 5 watts

    Correct Answer
    A. 100 ohm, 10 watts
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 100 ohm, 10 watts because the power (in watts) can be calculated using the formula P = I^2 * R, where P is power, I is current, and R is resistance. In this case, the current is 0.3 amperes and the resistance is 100 ohms. Plugging these values into the formula, we get P = (0.3)^2 * 100 = 0.09 * 100 = 9 watts. Since the power required is 9 watts, the resistor with a power rating of 10 watts is the most suitable choice.

     Large stiffness coefficient represents

    • Motor speed remains practically constant

    • Large fluctuations due to mechanical load

    • Motor speed is variable to changes

    • No such significance with speed

    Correct Answer
    A. Motor speed remains practically constant
    Explanation
    A large stiffness coefficient represents that the motor speed remains practically constant. This means that the motor is able to maintain a consistent speed regardless of any fluctuations or changes in mechanical load. The stiffness coefficient is a measure of the motor's ability to resist changes in speed, and a large value indicates a high level of stability and consistency in the motor's performance.

    In a synchronous motor the back emf peak set up in the stator depends on

    • Rotor excitation

    • Supply voltage

    • Rotor speed

    • Load on the motor

    Correct Answer
    A. Rotor excitation
    Explanation
    The back emf peak set up in the stator of a synchronous motor depends on the rotor excitation. The rotor excitation refers to the magnetic field produced by the rotor. As the rotor excitation increases, the strength of the magnetic field also increases, leading to a higher back emf peak in the stator. Therefore, the level of rotor excitation directly affects the back emf peak in a synchronous motor. The other factors mentioned in the options, such as supply voltage, rotor speed, and load on the motor, may have an impact on the motor's performance but do not directly determine the back emf peak.

    In a roof supporting space truss, the load is transmitted as:

    • First to the truss then the joints through purlins

    • First to the purlins then the joints through trusses

    • First to the truss then the purlins through joints

    • First to the joints then the trusses through purlins

    Correct Answer
    A. First to the truss then the joints through purlins
    Explanation
    In a roof supporting space truss, the load is transmitted first to the truss and then to the joints through purlins. This means that the load is initially supported by the truss members, which are designed to carry the load. The load is then transferred to the joints, which connect the truss members, and finally to the purlins, which distribute the load to the supporting structure of the roof. This sequence ensures that the load is efficiently transmitted from the roof to the supporting elements.

    As the loading in bridge different from the simple trusses the calculations involved in the bridges are all 2D calculations.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that the calculations involved in bridges are all 2D calculations because the loading in a bridge is different from simple trusses. However, this is not true. Bridge calculations involve both 2D and 3D calculations, as bridges are complex structures that require consideration of various factors such as the distribution of loads, material properties, and structural behavior in multiple dimensions.
