Question 9
A body in a cubical shape of dimension and having mass of 2 kg is fully immersed in a fluid.
What is the specific gravity of the body?
A. 0.357
B. 0.453
C. 0.564
D. 0.181
E. 0.097
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
Density is given as
ρ = m/V ------------- (1)
Volume of the body is given as
V = 0.7 * 0.1 * 0.08 Or V = 5.6 x 10
-3
m
3
Putting the values in equation 1 we get
ρ = 2 / 5.6 x 10
-3
Or ρ = 357.14 kg/m
3
Specific gravity is given as
SG = ρ
body
/ ρ
water
---------------- (2)
Putting the values in equation 2 we get
SG = 357.14 / 1000 Or SG = 0.357
Therefore, A is the correct answer option.
Question 10
A heat engine performs work of 10000 J while transferring heat of 12000 J. What is the
efficiency of the engine?
A. 83.3 %
B. 84.5 %
C. 78.6 %
D. 45.7 %
E. 41.6 %
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
Efficiency of a heat engine is given as
η = W / Q --------------- (1)
Putting the values in equation 1 we get
%η = 10000 / 12000
%η = 0.833 x 100%
Or %η = 83.3 %
Therefore, A is the correct answer option.
