SOLUTIONS
S1. Ans (a)
Sol. Throttling process: Enthalpy is constant (to measure the quality of steam)
Isentropic process: Entropy is constant.
Free expansion: No work done
Isothermal process: Constant internal energy.

S2. Ans (c)
Sol.
Carnot efficiency of engine,
η=1-T_2/T_1 =1-300/600=0.5
But according to the inventor’s claim
Efficiency of engine = 1–0.45=0.55
∵ Efficiency of actual engine cannot be greater than Carnot efficiency.
It is an impossible engine.

S3. Ans (c)
Sol.

F_B/F_A =(ρg(2a)×a²)/(ρg(a)×2a²)=1

S4. Ans (b)
Sol. The draft tube has two purposes as follows:
It permits a negative or suction head to be established at the runner exist, thus making it possible to install the turbine above the tail race level without loss of head.
It converts a large proportion of velocity energy rejected from the runner into useful pressure energy. i.e. acts as a recuperetar of pressure energy.

S5. Ans (d)
Sol. (F_1 )/A_1 =F_2/A_2
⇒(16×10^4)/(π×(20)²)=F_2/(π(5)²)
∴F_2=1×10^4 N

S6. Ans (b)
Sol. Q=kA (ΔT )/l
⇒Q/A=kΔT/l
30=(k×10)/(10×10^(-2) )
⇒ k=30/100=0.3 W/mK

S7. Ans (c)
Sol. Heat capacity ratio C will be zero for both evaporator and condenser
C=0; ε=1-e^(-NTU)
This is valid for both evaporator and condenser

S8. Ans.(d)
Sol.

S9. Ans.(b)
Sol.

Deflection of elemental length ‘dx’.
d∆ =(W_x.d_x)/AE
Total deflection
∆ = ∫_0^2▒(W_x.d_x)/AE
W_x=V_x.γ=A.x.γ
Where γ = unit wt. of metal
∆= ∫_0^2▒(γ.A.x.dx)/AE
∆ =(γL^2)/2E=W/V×L^2/2E
∆=W/(A×L)×L^2/2E
∴∆=WL/2AE

S10. Ans.(c)
Sol.
Cutting speed,
V=πDN
=3.14×30×10^(-3)×1000
=3.14×30=94.2 m/min
