Q1. Which of the following is the correct data structure for solid models?
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q2. A solid disc of radius r rolls without slipping on a horizontal floor with angular velocity ω and angular acceleration α. The magnitude of the acceleration of the point of contact on the disc is
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

Tangential acceleration will be zero, radial acceleration will exist. 
Hence, Total acceleration = rω2

Q3. Water (Cp = 4.18 kJ/kg.K) at 80℃ enters a counter flow heat exchanger with a mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s. Air (Cp = 1 kJ/kg.K) enters at 30℃ with a mass flow rate of 2.09 kg/s. If the effectiveness of the heat exchanger is 0.8, the LMTD (in ℃) is 
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:
