Consider the following statements : 1. Both Otto and Diesel cycles are special cases of dual combustion cycle 2. Combustion process in IC engines is neither fully constant volume nor fully constant pressure process 3. Combustion process in ideal cycle is replaced by heat addition from internal source in closed cycle 4. Exhaust process is replaced by heat rejection in ideal cycle Which of the above statements are correct? (a) 1, 2 and 3(b) 3 and 4 only (c) 1, 2 and 4 only (d) 1, 2, 3 and 4

Answer»

(d) 1, 2, 3 and 4

Since, some time interval is required for the chemical reactions during combustion process, the combustion cannot take place at constant volume. Similarly, due to rapid uncontrolled combustion in diesel engines, combustion does not occur at constant pressure.

Answer»

(a) At every point the velocity vector is identical in magnitude and direction at any given instance

An ideal heat engine, operating on a reversible cycle, produces 9 kW. The engine operates between 27°C and 927°C. What is the fuel consumption given that the calorific value of the fuel is 40000 kJ/kg? (a) 0.8 kg/hr(b) 1.02 kg/hr (c) 1.08 kg/hr (d) 1.28 kg/hr

Answer»

(c) 1.08 kg/hr 

Efficiency of the ideal reversible cycle

\(\eta\) = 1 - \(\cfrac{T_2}{T_1}\) - 1 - \(\cfrac{(27+273)}{(927+273)}\)

= 1 - \(\cfrac{300}{1200}\) = 0.75 or 75%

\(\eta\) = \(\cfrac WQ\)

= Q = \(\cfrac{W}{\eta}\) = \(\cfrac{9}{0.75}\) = 12 KW

Q = mf × CV

\(\therefore\) mf\(\cfrac{Q}{CV}\) = \(\cfrac{12\,KW}{40000\,KJ/Kg}\)

\(\cfrac{12\,\times3600}{40000}\) = 1.08 kJ/hr

Why did Lencho call the post office employees crooks? Was he right in calling them so ? Give reasons. Lencho addresses the post office employees as a bunch of crooks. Why? Give reasons in support of your answer.

Answer»

When Lencho went to the post office expecting a reply from God, he received an envelope that had the money but only seventy pesos instead of hundred. He got very angry and thought that the employees had removed the remaining thirty pesos from the envelope. He believed that God could neither make a mistake nor could he have denied a request made to Him. If we think from Lencho’s point of view, he is not wrong in calling them crooks because Lencho’s faith was unwavering and under no circumstance he was going to doubt God. The envelope was in the post office, which meant that only the employees could have tampered with the envelope. Therefore, in his next letter, he addressed the post office employees as a bunch of crooks

A 500 g teapot and an insulated thermos are in a `20^(@)`C room. The teapot is filled with 1000 g of the boiling water. 12 tea bags are then placed into the teapot. The brewed tea is allowed to cool to `80^(@)`C, then 250 g of the tea is poured from the teapot into the thermos. The teapot is then kept on an insulated warmer that transfers 500 `cal//min` to the tea. Assume that the specific heat of brewed tea is the same as that of pure water, and that the tea bags have a very small mass compared to that of the water, and a negligible effect on the temperature. The specific heat of teapot is `0.17 J//g` K and that of water is `4.18 J//g ` K. The entire procedure is done under atmospheric pressure. There are `4.18` J in one calorie. After the tea is added to the thermos, the temperature of the liquid quickly falls from `80^(@)`C to `75^(@)`C as it reaches thermal equilibrium with the thermos flask. What is the heat capacity of the thermos?A. `9.5 J//K`B. `14 J//k`C. `95 J//K`D. `878 J//K`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
(a) `250gmxx4.18xx(80-75)=(ms)(75-20)`
`:.(ms)=95 J//k`
(b)Granite (maximum specific heat)
(c) as Rate `=500cal//min.:.5min=2500`cal.
