SOLUTIONS:-
S1. Ans(d)
Sol. Destructive pitting generally results from surface overload conditions which cannot be alleviated by initial pitting. destructive pitting can be avoided by keeping the load on the surface below the endurance limit for the material.
S2. Ans(b)
Sol.
S3. Ans(d)
Sol.
S4. Ans(c)
Sol. All the spontaneous processes are irreversible in nature. The irreversibility is caused by finite potential gradient like temperature gradient etc. or by any dissipative effect like friction. Types of irreversibility
1. Internal irreversibility
2. External irreversibility
1. Internal irreversibility:- Internal irreversibility is caused by internal dissipative effects in the system like friction, turbulence, electric resistance etc. Thus, the irreversibility in the system caused by friction is an example of internal irreversibility.
S5. Ans(d)
Sol. Ideal gas-refrigeration cycle work on the principle of Bell-coleman or reversed Brayton cycle. Air is used as a refrigerant.
S6. Ans(c)
Sol. Impulse is defined as the average impact force applied for a fraction of time.
i.e. I=F.∆t
S7. Ans(b)
Sol. Force of water acts tangentially to the Pelton wheel.
S8. Ans(c)
Sol. Brass has copper 70% and zinc 30%.
S9. Ans(c)
Sol. Low depth of cut and high cutting speed causes good surface finish in grinding process.
S10. Ans(c)
Sol.
