A body moes in a circular path of radius 5m with a centripetal acceleration of 10 m/s its tangent speed is

Answer»

Given,

ac = 10 m/s2

R = 5m

As we know ac (centipetal acceleration)

ac = ω2R

ω2 = ac/R

ω= 10/5

ω2 = 2

ω = 1.414 

Now tanget speed is

v = rω

v = 5 x 1.414

v = 7.05

The velocity of a projectile equals its initial velocity added to: Answers a. a constant vertical velocity

Answer»

Answer: a constantly increasing downward velocity

Projectiles may be launched in two ways: i) from the ground, upwards at an angle and ii) from a height, horizontally. When launched from ground, upwards, the vertical velocity first decreases, comes to zero, then increases till it hits the ground. In type ii) projectile, the vertical motion is one of constant downward acceleration.The horizontal component of motion remains constant throughout, in both the cases.

The motion referred to in this problem is one of constant increase. therefore, it is a case of type ii) projectile discussed above. Therefore, the velocity of a projectile equals its initial velocity added to a constantly increasing downward velocity.

‘The air we breathe is made up of lots of other things besides oxygen’. Identify the broad composition of dry air.Or ‘Clouds are an important part of Earth's weather’. Explain the statement.

Answer»

Air is a mechanical mixture of a variety of gases. The main constituents of this mixture are nitrogen and oxygen, accounting for almost 99% of the whole, with roughly three parts of nitrogen to one part of oxygen. There are small amounts or traces of other gases.

The percentage of composition of dry air by volume is in the proportions as under: - 

Nitrogen - 78.09 % 

Oxygen - 20.95 % 

Argon - 0.93 % 

Carbon dioxide - 0.03 %

OR

The clouds may be defined as a visible aggregate of minute particles of water in the free air. Ice or clouds both are formed by the cooling of masses of damp air, generated by upward motion and its accompanying expansion with a fall of pressure.

_____________ curves are curves which, when viewed from the side, are concave upwards. This includes vertical curves at valley bottoms, but it also includes locations where an uphill grade becomes steeper, or a downhill grade becomes less steep.(a) Sag horizontal(b) Hog horizontal(c) Sag vertical(d) Hog vertical

Answer» Right answer is (c) Sag vertical

Explanation: The most important design criterion for these curves is headlight sight distance. When a driver is driving on a sag curve at night, the sight distance is limited by the higher grade in front of the vehicle. This distance must be long enough that the driver can see any obstruction on the road and stop the vehicle within the headlight sight distance. The headlight sight distance (S) is determined by the angle of the headlight and angle of the tangent slope at the end of the curve.

A collection of points in a plane which are at a constant distance from a fixed point is called a _______.1. Ellipse2. Circle3. Parabola4. Hyperbola

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : Circle

The correct answer is Circle.

  • A collection of points in a plane that are at a constant distance from a fixed point is called a Circle.

  • Ellipse:-  
    • It may be defined as the path of a point moving in a plane so that the ratio of its distances from a fixed point (the focus) and a fixed straight line (the directrix) is a constant less than one.
  • Parabola:-
    • It is a curve where any point is at an equal distance from a fixed point (the focus), and a fixed straight line (the directrix ).
  • Hyperbola:-
    • It is a plane curve generated by a point so moving that the difference of the distances from two fixed points is a constant: a curve formed by the intersection of a double right circular cone with a plane that cuts both halves of the cone.
9226.

The distance shown by red line represents ______________(a) separation(b) parallel way(c) height(d) gauge

Answer» Right option is (d) gauge

To elaborate: During the early days of rail, there was considerable variation in the gauge used by different systems. Today, 54.8% of the world’s railways use a gauge of 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 (frac{1}{2}) in), known as standard or international gauge. Gauges wider than standard gauge are called broad gauge; narrower, narrow gauge. Some stretches of track are dual gauge, with three (or sometimes four) parallel rails in place of the usual two, to allow trains of two different gauges to use the same track.
9227.

90% of urban water supply and sanitation services are currently in the ______________(a) industry(b) agriculture(c) government(d) public sector

Answer» Right choice is (d) public sector

To elaborate: They are owned by the state or local authorities, or also by collectives or cooperatives. They run without an aim for profit but are based on the ethos of providing a common good considered to be of public interest. In most middle and low-income countries, these publicly owned and managed water providers can be inefficient as a result of political interference, leading to over-staffing and low labour productivity.

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : Tabla, Dholak, & Drums 

The correct answer is Tabla, Dholak, & Drums.

  • Percussion instruments include any instrument that makes a sound when it is hit, shaken, or scraped.
  • Tabla:-
    • A tabla is a pair of twin hand drums from the Indian subcontinent.
    • It has been the principal percussion instrument in Hindustani classical music, where it may be played solo, as an accompaniment with other instruments and vocals, and as a part of larger ensembles. 
  • Dholak:-
    • It is a two-headed hand-drum from the Indian subcontinent.
    • It may have traditional cotton rope lacing, screw-turnbuckle tensioning or both combined in the first case steel rings are used for tuning, or pegs are twisted inside the laces.
    • The dholak is mainly a folk instrument, lacking the exact tuning and playing techniques of the tabla or the pakhawaj. 
  • Drum:-
    • The drum is made of wood or brass with drumheads made of calfskin or plastic stretched over both ends of a hollow cylinder.
    • It has a set of wire-wrapped strings stretched across the bottom head (the snare), which gives the drum its unique "rattling" sound when the drum is hit. A small switch on the side of the drum allows the player to turn the snare on or off depending on the requirements of the piece.

Figure shown below represents ____________(a) flat roof(b) clerestory roof(c) shed roof(d) gable roof

Answer» The correct answer is (c) shed roof

For explanation: A mono-pitched roof, often referred to as a pent roof, shed roof, lean-to roof, and/or skillion roof, is a single-sloped roof surface, often not attached to another roof surface. This is in contrast to a dual-pitched roof, also known as a gabled roof, which is pitched in two different directions.
9232.

Figure shown below represents a symbol ‘A’, it signifies?(a) Septic tank(b) Soak pit(c) Gutter(d) Water storing tank

Answer» The correct option is (a) Septic tank

Easiest explanation: A septic tank collects and treats wastewater at a property that is not connected to the mains sewer system. Installed underground, a septic tank makes use of natural processes to treat the sewage it stores. Usually made up of two chambers or compartments, the tank receives wastewater from an inlet pipe. Wastewater enters the first chamber and separates over time, with solids settling at the bottom, oils and greases forming a layer of scum at the top, and a layer of relatively clear water remaining in the middle.
9233.

Percussion drilling is unsuitable in _______(a) unconsolidated sand(b) unconsolidated gravel(c) consolidated rocks(d) quick sand

Answer» Correct answer is (d) quick sand

Easy explanation: Percussion drilling is a manual drilling technique in which a heavy cutting or hammering bit attached to a rope or cable is lowered in the open hole or inside a temporary casing. The technique is often also referred to as ‘Cable tool’. Usually a tripod is used to support the tools.
9234.

In this method, it is assumed that the property will lose its value by a constant percentage of its value at the beginning of every year. This method is called?(a) Sinking fund method(b) Constant percentage method(c) Straight line method(d) Quantity survey method

Answer» The correct choice is (c) Straight line method

The best I can explain: In this method a fixed amount of the original cost is deducted every year so that at the end of the utility period only the scrap value is left.

Annual depreciation D = Original cost-scrap value/life in year = C-S/n,

Where C- original cost, S- scrap value, n-life of the property in years and D- annual depreciation. The book value after the number of years, say N years = original cost – N*D.
9235.

What is the longitudinal slope called?(a) Kerb(b) Horizon(c) Grade(d) Lift

Answer» Right option is (c) Grade

To explain I would say: The grade (also called slope, incline, gradient, mainfall, pitch or rise) of a physical feature, landform or constructed line refers to the tangent of the angle of that surface to the horizontal. It is a special case of the slope, where zero indicates horizontality. A larger number indicates higher or steeper degree of “tilt”. Often slope is calculated as a ratio of “rise” to “run”, or as a fraction (“rise over run”) in which run is the horizontal distance and rise is the vertical distance.
9236.

In the following figure, Part 2 represents?(a) cut-out(b) generator(c) jet pump with pressure switch(d) power source

Answer» The correct choice is (c) jet pump with pressure switch

The explanation is: A pump-jet, hydrojet, or water jet is a marine system that creates a jet of water for propulsion. The mechanical arrangement may be a ducted propeller (axial-flow pump), a centrifugal pump, or a mixed flow pump which is a combination of both centrifugal and axial designs. The design also incorporates an intake to provide water to the pump and a nozzle to direct the flow of water out of the pump.
9237.

An _________ culvert is normally a low profile culvert. It allows them to be installed without disturbing the causeway as it will span over the entire drainage width.(a) box(b) rectangle(c) arch(d) circular

Answer» The correct choice is (c) arch

For explanation: They are normally made of metal, stone masonry or RCC. They are installed easily, and you don’t need to use expensive water diversion structures to install it. Common shapes include semicircular arch, elliptical arch, and concrete box culverts.  Another benefit of these type of structure is that the installation process will not take a lot of time, compared to traditional box culverts.
9238.

A road junction where typically three or more roads are joined by a circular section of road is called _________(a) intersection(b) merging(c) circulation(d) roundabout

Answer» The correct answer is (d) roundabout

The best I can explain: A roundabout, also called a traffic circle, road circle, rotary, rotunda or island, is a type of circular intersection or junction in which road traffic flows almost continuously in one direction around a central island.

So-called “modern” roundabouts require entering traffic to give way to traffic already in the circle and optimally observe various design rules to increase safety.
9239.

As the unevenness index increases there is no substantial increase in _____________(a) fuel consumption(b) wear and rear of tyres(c) vehicle maintenance cost(d) increase of speed

Answer» Correct choice is (d) increase of speed

For explanation I would say: As there is an increase in the unevenness index, there is no substantial increase in speed, instead it decreases.

Unevenness index is a measure of unevenness which is the cumulative measure of vertical undulations of the pavement surface recorded per unit horizontal length of the road. An unevenness index value less than 1500 mm/km is considered as good, a value less than 2500 mm.km is satisfactory up to speed of 100 kmph and values greater than 3200 mm/km is considered as uncomfortable even for 55 kmph.
9240.

The weight of vehicles affects ____________(a) pavement thickness(b) ruling gradient(c) limiting gradient(d) pavement thickness, ruling gradient and limiting gradient

Answer» Correct answer is (d) pavement thickness, ruling gradient and limiting gradient

For explanation I would say: Weight transfer and load transfer are two expressions used somewhat confusingly to describe two distinct effects: the change in load borne by different wheels of even perfectly rigid vehicles during acceleration, and the change in center of mass (CoM) location relative to the wheels because of suspension compliance or cargo shifting or sloshing. In the automobile industry, weight transfer customarily refers to the change in load borne by different wheels during acceleration. This is more properly referred to as load transfer, and that is the expression used in the motorcycle industry.
9241.

Which one is not a type of Equalization tanks?(a) Flow through type(b) Intermittent flow type(c) Variable inflow/constant discharge type(d) Intercept type

Answer» Right choice is (d) Intercept type

Best explanation: The simple flow through type equalization tank is mainly useful in assisting self neutralization or evening out of fluctuating concentrations, not for balancing of flows since a flow through type tank once filled, gives output equal to input.

Flow balancing and self-neutralization are both achieved by using two tanks, intermittently one after another. One tank is allowed to fill up after which it is checked for pH (or any other parameter) and then allowed to empty out. The second tank goes through a similar routine. Intermittent flow type tanks are economic for small flows from industries.

When flows are large an equalization tank of such a size may have to be provided that inflow can be variable while outflow is at a constant rate, generally by a pump.The capacity required is determined from a plot of the cumulative inflow and a plot of the constant rate outflow and measuring the gaps between the two plots. A factor of safety may be applied if desired.
9242.

The area of a sloping surface of a protective embankment of mean height d, side slopes S: 1 and length L is _________(a) d x d x s(b) (d2 x (ds)2)1/2(c) L.D (1 + s2)1/2(d) 2 L.D (1 + s2)1/2

Answer» Correct option is (c) L.D (1 + s2)1/2

Explanation: An embankment dam is a large artificial dam. It is typically created by the placement and compaction of a complex semi-plastic mound of various compositions of soil, sand, clay, or rock. It has a semi-pervious waterproof natural covering for its surface and a dense, impervious core. This makes such a dam impervious to surface or seepage erosion. Such a dam is composed of fragmented independent material particles. The friction and interaction of particles binds the particles together into a stable mass rather than by the use of a cementing substance.
9243.

The head of public works department of any Indian state, is ____________(a) Transport Minister(b) Chief Engineer(c) Superintending Engineer(d) Executive Engineer

Answer» Right answer is (b) Chief Engineer

Explanation: A chief engineer is a senior engineer in an organization. Typically they are in charge of an engineering department, and duties vary considerably depending on the industry. In public works, such as for a city, county, military division, or federal program, the engineering department often has a chief engineer. This is typically shown as “Office of the Chief Engineer” in organizational charts. This person or group is separate from the other engineering offices, and functions to coordinate their activities from an engineering perspective.
