Q2.A triangular–shaped cantilever beam of uniform–thickness is shown in the figure.
The Young’s modulus of the material of the beam is E. A concentrated load P is
applied at the free end of the beam.
The area moment of inertia about the neutral axis of a cross-section at a distance
x measured from the free end is
Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution: No Explaination.
Q3. If a mass of moist air contained in a closed metallic vessel is heated, then its
Answer : Option AExplaination / Solution:
Given that mass of moist air contained in a closed metallic vessel is heated, means its specific
humidity (𝜔) is constant.
So, from the psychometric chart,
We can say that at constant specific humidity, as temperature increases relative humidity
decreases i.e.,(Φ2<Φ1)
Q6.A triangular–shaped cantilever beam of uniform–thickness is shown in the figure. The Young’s modulus of the material of the beam is E. A concentrated load P is applied at the free end of the beam.
The maximum deflection of the beam is
Answer : Option DExplaination / Solution: No Explaination.
Q7.In a counter-flow heat exchanger, water is heated at the rate of 1.5kg/s from 40°C to 80°C by
an oil entering at 120°C and leaving at 60°C. The specific heats of water and oil are
4.2kJ/kg.K and 2kJ/kg.K respectively. The overall heat transfer coefficient is 400 W/m2.K.
The required heat transfer surface area (in m2) is
Q10.A cantilever beam of length L and flexural modulus EI is subjected to a point load P at the free
end. The elastic strain energy stored in the beam due to bending (neglecting transverse shear)
