    A Tank is initially empty after sometime Water from height h is falling into the tank with Volume flow rate is Q , the Velocity of the water when it hits the Tank surface is 2 m/s at any instant of time the mass of tank and Water is 250 Kg and Accelaration due to gravity is 10 m/sec^2 . Then Total force (N) resisted by the weighing balance at that instant of time is

    • 2500 + 2000 Q

    • 2000 + 2000 Q

    • 2000 + 2500 Q

    • 2500 + 2500 Q

    Correct Answer
    A. 2500 + 2000 Q
    Explanation
    The total force resisted by the weighing balance at that instant of time can be calculated using the equation F = mg, where F is the force, m is the mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. In this case, the mass of the tank and water is given as 250 kg. Therefore, the force is equal to 250 kg multiplied by 10 m/s^2 (acceleration due to gravity), which gives us 2500 N. Additionally, the velocity of the water when it hits the tank surface is given as 2 m/s. The force due to the water hitting the tank surface can be calculated using the equation F = mv, where m is the mass and v is the velocity. Therefore, the force due to the water hitting the tank surface is equal to 2000 Q N (Q is the volume flow rate). Therefore, the total force resisted by the weighing balance at that instant of time is 2500 + 2000 Q N.

    The main cutting force acting on a tool during the turning (orthogonal cutting) operation of a metal is 400 N. The turning was performed using 2 mm depth of cut and 0.1 mm/rev feed rate. The specific cutting pressure (in N/mm2) is

    • 1000

    • 2000

    • 3000

    • 4000

    Correct Answer
    A. 2000
    Explanation
    The specific cutting pressure can be calculated using the formula: Specific cutting pressure = Cutting force / (Depth of cut x Feed rate). In this case, the cutting force is given as 400 N, the depth of cut is 2 mm, and the feed rate is 0.1 mm/rev. Plugging in these values, we get: Specific cutting pressure = 400 N / (2 mm x 0.1 mm/rev) = 400 N / (0.2 mm/rev) = 2000 N/mm2. Therefore, the specific cutting pressure is 2000 N/mm2.

    A pair of spur gears with module 5 mm and a center distance of 450 mm is used for a speed reduction of 5:1. The number of teeth on pinion is

    • 30

    • 50

    • 60

    • 20

    Correct Answer
    A. 30
    Explanation
    The module of the gears is given as 5 mm, which represents the size of the gear teeth. The center distance between the gears is given as 450 mm. The speed reduction ratio is 5:1, which means the pinion gear (smaller gear) will have 5 times fewer teeth than the larger gear. Therefore, the number of teeth on the pinion gear can be calculated as (number of teeth on larger gear) divided by 5. Since the answer options are 30, 50, 60, and 20, the only option that satisfies this calculation is 30.

    Wheel loading in grinding is defined as

    • Types of wheel bond fracture

    • Types of wheel grain fracture

    • Sticking of small particle on grinding wheel

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Sticking of small particle on grinding wheel
    Explanation
    Wheel loading in grinding is defined as the sticking of small particles on the grinding wheel. During the grinding process, the small particles from the workpiece or the grinding wheel itself can adhere to the surface of the wheel, reducing its cutting ability and causing a decrease in the material removal rate. This phenomenon can lead to poor surface finish, increased heat generation, and shorter wheel life. Therefore, it is important to prevent wheel loading by using appropriate coolant, dressing the wheel regularly, and maintaining proper grinding parameters.

    If cohesion between molecules of a fluid is greater than adhesion between fluid and glass, then the free level of fluid in a dipped glass tube will be

    • Higher than surface of liquid

    • Same as the surface of liquid

    • Lower than the surface of liquid

    • Unpredictable

    Correct Answer
    A. Lower than the surface of liquid
    Explanation
    When the cohesion between molecules of a fluid is greater than the adhesion between the fluid and the glass, the molecules of the fluid tend to stick together more strongly than they stick to the glass. This results in a concave meniscus forming in the dipped glass tube, causing the free level of the fluid to be lower than the surface of the liquid.

    A Carnot cycle is having of 0.75. if the temperature of the high temperature reservior is 1000 K. What is the temperature of low temperature reservior

    • 250 K

    • 300 K

    • 350 K

    • 400 K

    Correct Answer
    A. 250 K
    Explanation
    The Carnot cycle is a theoretical thermodynamic cycle that operates between two temperature reservoirs. The efficiency of the Carnot cycle is given by the formula efficiency = 1 - (T_low / T_high), where T_low and T_high are the temperatures of the low and high temperature reservoirs, respectively. In this case, the efficiency is given as 0.75. Substituting the given values into the formula, we can solve for T_low: 0.75 = 1 - (T_low / 1000). Rearranging the equation gives T_low = (1 - 0.75) * 1000 = 250 K. Therefore, the temperature of the low temperature reservoir is 250 K.

    A Circular rod of length ‘L’ and area of cross-section ‘A’ has a modulus of elasticity ‘E’ and coefficient of thermal expansion ‘α’. One end of the rod is fixed and other end is free. If the temperature of the rod is increased by ΔT, then

    • Stress developed in the rod is E α ΔT and strain developed in the rod is α ΔT

    • Both stress and strain developed in the rod are zero

    • Stress developed in the rod is zero and strain developed in the rod is α ΔT

    • Stress developed in the rod is E α ΔT and strain developed in the rod is zero

    Correct Answer
    A. Stress developed in the rod is zero and strain developed in the rod is α ΔT
    Explanation
    When one end of the rod is fixed and the other end is free, the rod is unable to expand or contract freely in response to the change in temperature. This results in the development of stress in the rod, which is equal to zero. However, the coefficient of thermal expansion α indicates that the rod will experience a change in length proportional to the change in temperature. This change in length corresponds to the strain developed in the rod, which is α ΔT. Therefore, the stress developed in the rod is zero and the strain developed is α ΔT.

    An aluminium alloy (density 2600 kg/m^3) casting is to be produced. A cylindrical hole of 100 mm diameter and 100 mm length is made in the casting using sand core (density 1600 kg/m^3). The net buoyancy force (in newton) acting on the core is

    • 5

    • 8

    • 9

    • 4

    Correct Answer
    A. 8
    Explanation
    The net buoyancy force acting on the core can be calculated by finding the difference between the weight of the displaced fluid and the weight of the core. The weight of the displaced fluid can be calculated using the formula: weight = density * volume * gravity. The volume of the displaced fluid can be calculated as the volume of the cylindrical hole. The weight of the core can be calculated using the formula: weight = density * volume * gravity. By subtracting the weight of the core from the weight of the displaced fluid, we can find the net buoyancy force. In this case, the weight of the displaced fluid is greater than the weight of the core, resulting in a net buoyancy force of 8 newtons.

    • Higher thermal conductivity material should be used for inner layer and low thermal conductivity material should be used for outer layer

    • Higher thermal conductivity material should be used for outer layer and low thermal conductivity material should be used for inner layer

    • Selection of material for any layer is independent on thermal conductivity

    • Can't judge due to insufficient data

    Correct Answer
    A. Higher thermal conductivity material should be used for outer layer and low thermal conductivity material should be used for inner layer
    Explanation
    The higher thermal conductivity material should be used for the outer layer and the lower thermal conductivity material should be used for the inner layer. This is because the outer layer of the insulation will be exposed to the surrounding environment, which is typically at a lower temperature. Using a material with higher thermal conductivity for the outer layer will allow for better heat transfer from the pipe to the surroundings, reducing heat loss. The inner layer, on the other hand, will be in direct contact with the hot fluid inside the pipe. Using a material with lower thermal conductivity for the inner layer will help to minimize heat transfer from the fluid to the surroundings, further reducing heat loss.

    A Grinding wheel of 150mm diameter is rotating at 3000 rpm. The grinding speed is

    • 7.5 Ï€ m/s

    • 15Ï€ m/s

    • 45Ï€ m/s

    • 450Ï€ m/s

    Correct Answer
    A. 7.5 π m/s
    Explanation
    The grinding speed can be calculated by multiplying the circumference of the grinding wheel with the rotational speed. The circumference of the grinding wheel can be found using the formula 2Ï€r, where r is the radius of the wheel. Since the diameter of the wheel is given as 150mm, the radius can be calculated as 150/2 = 75mm = 0.075m. Therefore, the circumference is 2Ï€(0.075) = 0.15Ï€m. Multiplying this by the rotational speed of 3000 rpm gives us 0.15Ï€ * 3000 = 450Ï€ m/s.

    A gymnastic beam can be modeled with a 10 cm x 40 cm crosssection and 6 m between its supports. A gymnast lands at the center of this beam with a 1.5 kN force. What is the shear stress on the upper surface of the beam directly below the force of the gymnast?

    • 0 Kpa

    • 31 Kpa

    • 18 Kpa

    • 40 Kpa

    Correct Answer
    A. 0 Kpa
    Explanation
    The shear stress on the upper surface of the beam directly below the force of the gymnast is 0 Kpa. This is because shear stress is calculated by dividing the force applied perpendicular to the area by the area itself. In this case, the force applied is 1.5 kN and the area is 10 cm x 40 cm. However, since the gymnast lands at the center of the beam, the force is evenly distributed on both sides, resulting in an equal and opposite force canceling each other out. Therefore, the net force is 0, leading to a shear stress of 0 Kpa.

    At the triple point of Water, the Number of Degrees of Freedom is

    • 1

    • 2

    • 3

    Correct Answer
    A. 1
    Explanation
    At the triple point of water, the number of degrees of freedom is 1. This is because at this point, water exists in a unique state where all three phases (solid, liquid, and gas) can coexist in equilibrium. The temperature and pressure are fixed, leaving no freedom for any variation in these parameters. Therefore, there is only one degree of freedom remaining, which is the composition of the three phases.

    For laminar forced convection over a flat plate, if the free stream velocity increases by a factor of 2, the average heat transfer coefficient

    • Remains same

    • Decreases by a factor of 1.414

    • Rise by a factor of 1.414

    • Increase by a factor of 4

    Correct Answer
    A. Rise by a factor of 1.414
    Explanation
    When the free stream velocity increases by a factor of 2, the average heat transfer coefficient rises by a factor of 1.414. This is because the heat transfer coefficient is directly proportional to the velocity of the fluid. As the velocity increases, the fluid carries more heat away from the surface, resulting in a higher heat transfer coefficient. The factor of 1.414 is derived from the relationship between velocity and heat transfer coefficient in laminar forced convection over a flat plate.

    In Which of the following process the total heat is converted into work

    • Reversible Adiabatic Process

    • Reversible Isothermal Process

    • Reversible Isochoric Process

    • Reversible Isoboric Process

    Correct Answer
    A. Reversible Isothermal Process
    Explanation
    In a reversible isothermal process, the total heat is converted into work. This is because in an isothermal process, the temperature remains constant. As a result, the system absorbs heat from the surroundings and converts it into work without any change in temperature. This process is reversible, meaning that it can be reversed to its initial state without any loss or gain of energy. Therefore, the total heat is completely converted into work in a reversible isothermal process.

    For a completely submerged body with centre of gravity ‘G’ and centre of buoyancy ‘B’, the condition of stability will be

    • G is located below B

    • G located above B

    • G and B in Coincident

    • Independent of the location of G and B

    Correct Answer
    A. G is located below B
    Explanation
    When the center of gravity (G) is located below the center of buoyancy (B) for a completely submerged body, the body will be stable. This is because the buoyant force acting on the body will create a torque that tends to restore the body to its original position if it is displaced. The lower the center of gravity is compared to the center of buoyancy, the greater the stability of the body.

    A body of mass 10 kg moving with the velocity of 1 m/s is acted upon by a force of 50 N for two Seconds. The final velocity will be

    • 22 m/s

    • 10 m/s

    • 21 m/s

    • 11 m/s

    Correct Answer
    A. 11 m/s
    Explanation
    When a force is applied to an object, it causes a change in its velocity. According to Newton's second law of motion, force (F) is equal to mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a). In this case, the force applied is 50 N and the mass of the body is 10 kg. Therefore, the acceleration can be calculated as 50 N / 10 kg = 5 m/s^2.

    Using the equation of motion v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time, we can substitute the given values. The initial velocity (u) is 1 m/s, the acceleration (a) is 5 m/s^2, and the time (t) is 2 seconds.

    Plugging in these values, we get v = 1 m/s + 5 m/s^2 * 2 s = 11 m/s. Therefore, the final velocity of the body will be 11 m/s.

    • Compression moulding

    • Extrusion with mandrel

    • Injection moulding

    • blow moulding

    Correct Answer
    A. blow moulding
    Explanation
    Blow moulding is the correct answer because it is the process used to make bottles from thermo plastic materials. In blow moulding, a hollow tube called a parison is formed by extrusion or injection moulding. The parison is then placed in a mould and inflated with air, taking the shape of the mould to form the bottle. This process is commonly used for manufacturing plastic bottles as it allows for high production rates and the ability to create bottles with complex shapes and sizes.

    The hot tearing in a metal casting due to

    • High fluidity

    • High melt temperature

    • Wide range of solidification temperature

    • Low coefficient of thermal expansion

    Correct Answer
    A. Wide range of solidification temperature
    Explanation
    Hot tearing in a metal casting can occur when there is a wide range of solidification temperature. This means that different sections of the casting solidify at different rates, causing internal stresses to build up. These stresses can lead to cracks or fractures in the casting, known as hot tears. Factors such as high fluidity, high melt temperature, and low coefficient of thermal expansion may affect the overall casting process, but they do not directly contribute to hot tearing.

    Constant Pressure lines in the superheated region of the Mollier Diagram will have

    • A positive slope

    • A negative slope

    • Zero slope

    • Asymptote

    Correct Answer
    A. A positive slope
    Explanation
    Constant pressure lines in the superheated region of the Mollier Diagram will have a positive slope because as the temperature increases, the enthalpy also increases at a constant pressure. This is because the superheated region represents the state of steam that is above its saturation temperature and pressure, and as heat is added to the steam, its temperature and enthalpy increase. Therefore, the constant pressure lines on the Mollier Diagram will have a positive slope to represent this relationship between temperature and enthalpy.

    A group consists of equal number of men and women. Of this group 20% of the men and 50% of the women are unemployed. If a person is selected at random from this group, the probability of the selected person being employed is

    • 0.65

    • 0.3

    • 0.4

    • 0.8

    Correct Answer
    A. 0.65
    Explanation
    In the given group, 20% of the men and 50% of the women are unemployed. This means that 80% of the men and 50% of the women are employed. Since the group consists of an equal number of men and women, the probability of selecting an employed person from the group is the average of these two probabilities, which is (80% + 50%) / 2 = 65%. Therefore, the probability of the selected person being employed is 0.65.
