Q:

The modulus of elasticity for mild steel is approximately equal to

A) 210 kN/mm2 B) 100 kN/mm2
C) 80 kN/mm2 D) 10 kN/mm2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 210 kN/mm2

Explanation:

It is useful to have a property of a material that is independent of the size of the sample and can be use to compare its elastic properties with another - this is called the Modulus of Elasticity for the material.

The modulus of elasticity is defined as:

 

Modulus of elasticity = Stress / Strain

 

There are three types of moduli. They are :

(a) the Young Modulus - tensile and compression longitudinal stress

(b) the shear modulus - a shearing stress

(c) the bulk modulus - volume changes of the specimen.

Q:

If (2a + 3b)/(5a - 3b) = 23/5 , then the value of ba is ?

A) 5 B) 4
C) 20 D) 28
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 20

Explanation:

Given (2a + 3b)/(5a - 3b) = 23/5
=> 10a + 15b = 115a - 69b
=> 105a = 84b => 5a = 4b
a/b = 4/5 => a=4 & b=5
=> bxa = 5x4 = 20.

Q:

If a solid sphere of radius 10 cms is moulded into 8 spherical solid balls of equal radius, then surface area of each ball (in sq.cm) is ?

A) 100 π B) 101/π
C) 99 π/12 D) 54/13π
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 100 π

Explanation:

4/3 π x 10 x 10 x 10 = 8 x 4/3 π x r x r x r
r = 5
4π x 5 x 5 = 100π
