HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 8 - Question 3

The largest number which divides 70 and 125, leaving remainders 5 and 8 respectively, is      

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 8 - Question 3

Since, 5 and 8 are the remainders of 70 and 125, respectively. Thus, after subtracting these remainders from the numbers, we have the numbers 65 = (70-5),
117 = (125 – 8), which is divisible by the required number.
Now, required number = HCF of 65,117                                     [for the largest number]
For this, 117 = 65 × 1 + 52 [∵ dividend = divisior × quotient + remainder]
⇒ 65 = 52 × 1 + 13
⇒ 52 = 13 × 4 + 0
∴ HCF = 13 
Hence, 13 is the largest number which divides 70 and 125, leaving remainders 5 amnd 8.

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 8 - Question 10

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 8 - Question 11

Direction: Study the following question carefully and choose the right answer.

If ZOO is coded as 2, TAN is coded as 8, then what is the code for WAR?

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 8 - Question 11

The numeric value of the letters (considering A to be 1 and Z to be 26) is added and simplified to obtain a single digit.
For ZOO, the numeric value of Z, O and O is 26, 15 and 15 respectively. Their sum is 56, Now 56 is further simplified to obtain a single digit by adding 5 and 6, which gives us 11 which is again added to obtain 2 as the final value.
Similarly for TAN, the numeric value of T, A and N is 20, 1 and 14 respectively. Their sum is 35, which is simplified as 3 + 5 = 8.
Similar process will be done to obtain the code for WAR, the numeric value of W, A and R is 23, 1 and 18 respectively. Their sum is 42, which is simplified as 4 + 2 = 6.
So, the code for WAR is 6.
Hence option (B) is correct.

If STAFF is coded as $2#55 and FOLD is coded as 5@3% then how is STOLL written in that code language?

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 8 - Question 12



∴ STOLL → $2@33
Hence, option B is correct.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 8 - Question 13

Select the number which can be placed at the sign of the question mark (?) from the given alternatives.

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 8 - Question 13

The logic follows here is:

Middle number = square root of first number + third number.

Row-wise operation :

(25, 41, 36)

middle number = 41

= √25 + 36

= 5 + 36

= 41

(49, 45, 38)

middle number = 45

= √49 + 38

= 7 + 38

= 45

Similarly

(36, ?, 62)

middle number = ?

= √36 + 62

= 6 + 62

= 68

Hence, the correct answer is "68"

What symbol is used to indicate surface roughness?

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 8 - Question 20

indicates roughness.

The surface roughness on a drawing is represented by triangles.

Surface texture or roughness representation

The basic symbol consists of two legs of unequal length inclined at approximately 60° to the line representing the considered surface.

The symbol must be represented by a thin line.

The value of roughness is added to the symbols.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 8 - Question 26

A submerged body will be in stable equilibrium if the centre of gravity is

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 8 - Question 26
Stability of unconstrained Submerged Bodies in Fluid

The equilibrium of a body submerged in a liquid requires that the weight of the body acting through its centre of gravity should be collinear with an equal hydrostatic lift acting through the centre of buoyancy.

  • Stable Equilibrium: If the body returns to its original position by retaining the originally vertical axis as vertical
  • Unstable Equilibrium: If the body does not return to its original position but moves further from it
  • Neutral Equilibrium: If the body neither returns to its original position nor increases its displacement further, it will simply adopt its new position

The relative position of the centre of gravity (G) and centre of buoyancy (B) of a body determines the stability of a submerged body.

  • Stable Equilibrium: B is above G

  • Unstable Equilibrium: B is below G

  • Neutral Equilibrium: B coincides with G
