Solutions
S1. Ans.(b)
Sol. In slider crank mechanism, secondary forces fluctuate with double the rotating frequency.
i.e. V=rw[sinθ+(sin2θ)/2n]
S2. Ans.(d)
Sol. Venturimeter works on the Bernoulli’s principle.
S3. Ans.(c)
Sol. Work is a path dependent function and area under curve in a PV diagram represents the work done in a process.
S4. Ans.(c)
Sol. Set-over or offset required on tail stock for taper turning=taper X length of workpiece
Set over or offset length= 1/50 X 200=4 mm
S5. Ans.(c)
Sol. Let, perpendicular and base of the right-angle triangle are a and b.
Then,a+b=14.
a^2+b^2=10^2.
(a+b)^2=14^2.
a^2+b^2+2ab=196.
2ab=96.
ab/2=24 (area of triangle)
S6. Ans.(b)
Sol. Buoyant force for a floating body passes through centroid of the displaced volume.
S7. Ans.(b)
Sol. H7g6 defines the clearance fit.
S8. Ans.(b)
Sol. Shear stress is directly proportional to shear strain for a Newtonian fluid; hence the curve is a straight line.
S9. Ans (c)
Sol. Given LH = 0.4 SH
Now, SHF = SH/(SH+LH)=1/1.4=0.71
S10. Ans.(b)
Sol. According to Fourier law of conduction, heat flow per unit time between two faces of the body is directly proportional to area of the body.
If A↑ then Q↑.
