(a) Contour system
(b) Pneumatic system
(c) Electromechanical system
(d) Hydraulic system

Q3. Otto cycle consists of
(a) Two constant volume & two isentropic processes
(b) Two isothermal and two isentropic processes
(c) Two constant pressure and two isentropic processes
(d) One constant volume, one constant pressure and two isentropic processes

Q4. Perpetual motion machine of second kind (PMM-I) violates the
(a) Zeroth law of thermodynamics
(b) First law of thermodynamics
(c) Second law of thermodynamics
(d) Third law of thermodynamics

Q5. If the radius is doubled and the speed is reduced to half of its original value, the centrifugal force would be:
(a) 2.0 times the original value
(b) 0.5 times the original value
(c) 0.2 times the original value
(d) 0.1 times the original value

Q6. As compared to the mass of a body on the earth, its mass on the moon will be
(a) 6 times higher
(b) 6 times lower
(c) √6 times higher
(d) None of these

Solutions

S1. Ans. (d)
Sol. All of the above statements are correct.

S2. Ans. (a)
Sol. Contour system is not the actuation system of NC machine tool.

S3. Ans. (a)
Sol. Carnot cycle consists of two isothermal and two isentropic processes.
Otto cycle consists of two constant volume and two isentropic processes.

S4. Ans. (b)
Sol. Perpetual motion machine of second kind (PMM-II) violates the second law of thermodynamics.
Perpetual motion machine of second kind (PMM-I) violates the first law of thermodynamics.

S5. Ans. (b)
Sol.
F_2/F_1 =m_2/m_1 ×(ω_2/ω_1 )^2×r_2/r_1
=(1/2)^2×2=2/4=0.5 (∵ m_1=m_2)

S6. Ans. (d)
Sol. On moon only acceleration due to gravity is one sixth of acceleration due to gravity on earth.
g^’=g/6
So, weight of the body on moon becomes one sixth of the weight of the body on earth.
But there is no change in mass.
