(a) Links of length p
(b) Links of length q
(c) Link of length r

(a) curved path
(b) straight line
(c) point
(d) approximate straight line

(a) convection
(b) conduction and convection
(c) radiation
(d) radiation and convection
Q6. Consider the following statements:
1. The thermal conductivity of a material is its ability to conduct heat
2. The thermal conductivity can be defined as the rate of heat transfer through a unit thickness of the material per unit area.
3. In solids, heat conduction is due to lattice vibrational energy as well as energy transported via free flow of electrons.
4. Convection involves combined effect of conduction and fluid motion.
Which of the above statements are valid?
(a) 1 and 2
(b) 2, 3 and 4
(c) 1, 3 and 4
(d) 3 and 4
Solutions
S1. Ans (c)
Sol. Chances of plastic deformation is negligible for a rotating shaft if the system is balanced.
S2. Ans (c)
Sol.
S3. Ans (a)
Sol.
For Class- I
If shortest link (s) is fixed then we obtain double crank Mechanism.
If link opposite to shortest link (s) is fixed then we obtain double rocker Mechanism
If link other than shortest or opposite to shortest link is fixed then we obtain crank- rocker Mechanism.
For class-II
By fixing any link, we obtain double rocker Mechanism.
S4. Ans (b)
Sol.
Kennedy’s theorem states that when three links are in relative motion then the I – center of three links will lie on the same line.
S5. Ans (c)
Sol. As there is no medium in space for conduction and convection heat transfer to take place, hence heat can be continuously lost by radiation heat transfer.
S6. Ans (c)
Sol. Thermal conductivity of a material is its ability to conduct heat and can be defined as the rate of heat transfer for unit change of temperature from unit thickness per unit area. Conduction in solid is a combination of lattice vibration and electron motion. Convection heat transfer takes place through combined effect of conduction and motion of fluid.
