HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 1

Direction: Choose the option closest in meaning to the OPPOSITE of the word given in capitals.

INSULAR

Detailed Solution: Question 1

Narrow is a synonym of insular.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 2

Find the measure of an angle, if six times its complement is 12° less than twice its supplement :

Detailed Solution: Question 2

Let, the measure of the required angled be A°.
Then, measure of its complement = ( 90 – A )° measure of its supplement = (180 – A)°
According to question,
6(90° – A) = 2(180° – A) –12°
⇒ 540° – 6A = 360° – 2A – 12°
⇒ 4A = 192°
⇒ A = 48°.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 3

A ratio equivalent to 3 : 7 is:

Detailed Solution: Question 3

A ratio equivalent to 3 : 7 is:
To find a ratio equivalent to 3 : 7, we need to find a pair of numbers that have the same ratio when simplified. Let's try the options:

(i) 3 : 9 → This simplifies to 1 : 3, not the same as 3 : 7
(ii) 6 : 10 → This simplifies to 3 : 5, not the same as 3 : 7
(iii) 9 : 21 → This simplifies to 3 : 7, which is the same as 3 : 7, so the answer is (iii).

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 4

Plane figures are

Detailed Solution: Question 4

2D definition - A two-dimensional (2D) object is an object that only has two dimensions, such as a length and a width, and no thickness or height.  Since the plane figure has no thickness or height so it will be 2d figure.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 5

What is the average of all the numbers between 5 and 78, which can be divided by 6?

Detailed Solution: Question 5

Between 5 and 78:
First number = 6
Last number = 72

Hence, Option D is correct.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 6

The speeds of A and B are in the ratio 2 : 3. Starting from the same position, A takes 10 minutes more than the time taken by B to reach a certain destination. If A had walked at double the speed, then he would have covered the same distance in

Detailed Solution: Question 6

Given, both of them travel the same distance.
∴ Speed will be inversely proportional to time.
So, A and B will take 3x minutes and 2x minutes, respectively, to cover the same distance.
Given, 3x – 2x = 10
x = 10
So, A will take 30 minutes to cover the distance.
If A doubles his speed, then the time taken will be halved i.e. 15 minutes.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 7

The formula for finding total surface area of cuboid is  

Detailed Solution: Question 7

What is the lateral surface area of a cuboid of length l ...
Lets break the figure -
It has 6 surfaces.
Area of bottom surface = L * B
Area of Top Surface = L * B
Area of Right side surface = B * H
Area of Left Side surface  = B * H
Area of front Surface = H * L
Area of Back surface = H * L 
Total surface area of Cuboid = sum of all the surfaces.
=> (Bottom surface area + Top surface area + Right side surface area + Left side surface area + front side surface area
back side surface area)
=> (LB + LB + BH + BH + HL + HL)
=> (2LB + 2BH + 2HL)
=> 2(LB + BH + HL)
hence option B is correct.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 8

Does 210 falls in the AP: 21, 42, 63, 84…? If yes, then on which term?

Detailed Solution: Question 8

AP: 21, 42, 63, 84, …
a = 21
d = 42 – 21 = 21
a(n) = 210
a + (n – 1) x d = 210
21 + (n – 1) x (21) = 210
21 + 21 x n – 21 = 210
21 x n = 210
n = 10

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 9

30 liters of water is added to a 120 liters mixture containing 40% of alcohol. What is the percentage concentration of alcohol in the resultant mixture?

Inferences:

From the above reference, we get two different cases:

Case 1:


Case 2:


References:

S is not sitting beside P.

T is sitting second to the left of O.

O is not sitting beside M.

Inferences:

So, from this case 1 will be eliminated as S is not sitting beside P.

Thus, the final arrangement,

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 15

Choose the word which is different from the rest.

Detailed Solution: Question 15

Answer: C

Explanation:
The word that is different from the rest is Scallop (C). The reasons are as follows:
- Oyster (A), Clam (B), and Mussel (D) are all bivalve mollusks, meaning they have a shell that is divided into two hinged parts. On the other hand, Scallop (C) is also a bivalve mollusk, but it has some unique features that set it apart.
- Scallop's unique features:
- Scallops have a distinct shell shape, which is rounder and flatter compared to the other three.
- Scallops have an ability to swim by opening and closing their shells rapidly, which is not a common feature among the other three mollusks.
- The adductor muscle of the scallop, the part that is commonly consumed, is larger and more developed than in oysters, clams, or mussels, making it a more popular choice for culinary dishes.
These differences make Scallop (C) the word that stands out from the rest.All except Scallop, live in shells.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 16

Directions: Each of the following consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question.

Certain words are coded in the following manner in a code language. Find the code for “truck train”?
Statement I:
“train of steam” is coded as "126 184 115" and “steam start truck” is coded as "110 126 145".
Statement II: “truck of white” is coded as "113 184 110" and “train of start” is coded as "115 145 184".

Detailed Solution: Question 16

Checking Statement I:

Codes for truck and train cannot be found out.

Hence data in statement I is not sufficient to answer the question.

Checking Statement II:

Codes for truck and train cannot be found out.

Hence data in statement II is not sufficient to answer the question.

Checking both statements I and II together:

Code for truck is 110 and code for train is 115.

Hence data in statement I and II together is sufficient to answer the question.

Hence option D is correct.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 26

An undesirable property of a refrigerant is its:

Detailed Solution: Question 26

Required Properties of Ideal Refrigerant:

1) The refrigerant should have a low boiling point and a low freezing point.

2) It must have low specific heat and high latent heat. Because high specific heat decreases the refrigerating effect per kg of refrigerant and high latent heat at low temperature increases the refrigerating effect per kg of refrigerant.

3) It must have high critical pressure and temperature to avoid large power requirements.

4) The pressures required to be maintained in the evaporator and condenser should be low enough to reduce the material cost. They must be positive to avoid leakage of air into the system.

5) It should have a low specific volume to reduce the size of the compressor.

6) It must have high thermal conductivity to reduce the area of heat transfer in the evaporator and condenser.

7) It should be non-flammable, non-explosive, non-toxic, and non-corrosive.

8) It should not have any bad effects on the stored material or food when any leak develops in the system.

9) It must have high miscibility with lubricating oil and it should not have reacting properly with lubricating oil in the temperature range of the system.

10) It should give high COP in the working temperature range. This is necessary to reduce the running cost of the system.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 6 - Question 27

The cycle in which heat is supplied at constant volume and rejected at constant pressure is known as

Detailed Solution: Question 27

The cycle in which heat is supplied at constant volume and rejected at constant pressure is known as A Dual combustion cycle. The Atkinson-cycle engine is a type of internal combustion engine invented by James Atkinson in 1882. The Atkinson cycle is designed to provide efficiency at the expense of power density. A modern variation of this approach is used in some modern automobile engines.

A system is said to be in thermodynamic equilibrium if the system is in:

Detailed Solution: Question 28

A system is said to be in thermodynamic equilibrium if the conditions for the following all three equilibrium is satisfied:

1) Mechanical equilibrium: When there are no unbalanced forces within the system and between the system and the surrounding, the system is under mechanical equilibrium.

2) Chemical equilibrium: The system is said to be in chemical equilibrium when no chemical reactions are going on within the system. There is no transfer of matter from one part of the system to another due to diffusion.

3) Thermal equilibrium: When the temperature of the system is uniform and not changing throughout the system and also in the surroundings, the system is said to be in thermal equilibrium.
