Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 4

for a given AP, the Nth term is:
a(n) = a + (n-1) x d
a(17) = a + (17−1) x d
a(17) = a + 16 x d

II. B weight is four and half times as much as of C.
III. C weight is half times as much as of D.
IV. D weight is half as much as of E.
V. E weight is less than A but more than C.

Q. E is lighter in weight than which of the other two articles?

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 12

According to question,
A's weight is twice as much as of B.
1. A = 2B.
B's weight is four and half times as much as of C.
2. B = 4.5C
C's weight is half times as much as of D.
3. C = D/2.
D's weight is half as much as of E.
4. D = E/2.
E weight is less than A but more than C.
5. A > E > C
from 1 and 2
6. A = 2B = 9C
from 6 and 3
7. A = 2B = 9C = 4.5D
from 7 and 4
8. A = 2B = 9C = 4.5D = 2.25E

A spark-ignition engine (SI engine) is an internal combustion engine, generally a petrol engine. The combustion process of the air-fuel mixture is ignited by a spark from a spark plug.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 17

The Bernoulli’s constant for points lying on the same streamline and those which lie on other streamlines will have the same value if the flow is

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 17
Bernoulli’s equation states that the,

P + 1/2ρV2 + ρgh = c

P is the pressure, r is the density, v is the velocity, h is the elevation difference.

The value of C in the above equation is constant only along a streamline and should essentially vary from streamline to streamline.

The equation can be used to define the relation between flow variables at point B on the streamline and at point A, along the same streamline. So, to apply this equation, one should have knowledge of the velocity field beforehand. This is one of the limitations of the application of Bernoulli's equation.

Therefore, the total mechanical energy remains constant everywhere in inviscid and irrotational flow, while it is constant only along a streamline for inviscid but rotational flow.

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 21

The atomic nucleus is the small, dense region consisting of protons and neutrons at the center of an atom, discovered in 1911 by Ernest Rutherford based on the 1909 Geiger–Marsden gold foil experiment. Protons and neutrons are bound together to form a nucleus by the nuclear force.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 22

________ gear train is used to connect minute hand to hour hand, in a clock mechanism.

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 22
When the axes of the first gear and the last gear are co-axial, then the gear train is known as the reverted gear train. The reverted gear trains are used in automotive transmissions, lathe back gears, industrial speed reducers, and in clocks (where the minute and hour hand shafts are co-axial).

The epicyclic gear trains are useful for transmitting high-velocity ratios with gears of moderate size in a comparatively lesser space. The epicyclic gear trains are used in the back gear of lathe, differential gears of the automobiles, hoists, pulley blocks, wristwatches, etc.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 23

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 23

Qsupplied = 60KJ

du= -30 KJ

from first law of thermo=

dW = 90 KJ

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 24

The depth of a fluid is measured in vertical Z – direction; X and Y are the other two directions and are mutually perpendicular. The static pressure variation in the fluid is given by

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 24
The pressure at any point in a fluid at rest is obtained by the Hydrostatic Law, which states that the rate of increase of pressure in a vertically downward direction must be equal to the specific weight of the fluid at that point.

p = ρgh

Pressure distribution profile

dp/dz = -ω = -pg

dp = -ω.dz

It indicates that a negative pressure gradient exists upward along any vertical.

Thus, the pressure decreases in the upward direction and increases in the downward direction with a magnitude equal to a specific weight.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 25

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 25

In 1909, Robert Millikan and Harvey Fletcher conducted the oil-drop experiment to determine the charge of an electron. Using the known electric field and the values of gravity and mass, Millikan and Fletcher determined the charge on oil droplets in mechanical equilibrium.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 26

The conditions for the stable equilibrium of a floating body are:

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 26
Condition of stable equilibrium for a floating body in terms of metacentric height (GM) as follows:
  • Stable equilibrium : GM > 0 (M is above G)
  • Neutral equilibrium : GM = 0 (M coinciding with G)
  • Unstable equilibrium : GM < 0="" (m="" is="" below="" g)="" />

(a) Equilibrium Position (b)Tilted Position

Condition of stable equilibrium for a floating body in terms of centre of buoyancy and the centre of gravity:

  • Stable equilibrium: If its centre of gravity is directly below the centre of buoyancy
  • Neutral equilibrium: If its centre of gravity is coincident with the centre of buoyancy
  • Unstable equilibrium: If its centre of gravity is directly above the centre of buoyancy

A submerged body is in equilibrium when the centre of gravity is located below the centre of buoyancy. If the body is tilted slightly in any direction, the buoyant force and the weight always produce a restoring couple trying to return the body to its original position.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 27

______ is the total area under the stress-strain curve in a tension test.

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 27
Modulus of elasticity is defined as the slope of its stress-strain curve in the elastic deformation region.

Strain Energy of the member is defined as the internal work done in deforming the body by the action of externally applied forces.

Resilience is defined as the capacity of a strained body for doing work on the removal of the straining force.

Proof resilience is defined as the maximum strain energy stored in a body. So, it is the quantity of strain energy stored in a body when strained up to the elastic limit (ability to store or absorb energy without permanent deformation).

Modulus of resilience is defined as proof resilience per unit volume. It is the area under the stress-strain curve up to the elastic limit.

The modulus of toughness is the ability to absorb energy up to fracture. From the stress-strain diagram, the area under the complete curve gives the measure of modulus of toughness.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 28

Curve A is for

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 28
Characteristic curves are necessary to predict the behaviour and performance of the pump when the pump is working under different flow rate, head, and speed.

If the speed is kept constant, the variation of manometric head, power, and efficiency with respect to discharge gives the operating characteristic curves of a pump.

Which of the following quantities is not a property of a system?

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 29
Any identifiable/observable characteristic of a system by which the physical condition of the system may be described is called the property of the system.

Some familiar properties are pressure, temperature, volume, and mass.

Properties may be divided into two categories, i.e., extensive (dependent of mass) and intensive (independent of mass) properties.

The unit of film heat transfer coefficient is-

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 4 - Question 30

It is used in calculating the heat transfer, typically by convection or phase transition between a fluid and a solid. The heat transfer coefficient has SI units in watts per squared meter kelvin: W/(m2K). The heat transfer coefficient is the reciprocal of thermal insulance.
