TEST MM 40

MT 100 mins

Do any 8

1. Define stress and strain. Write down the different types of stress and strain with one example
each.
2. What is Hooke’s law? Explain the meaning of the term “elastic limit.”
3. Differentiate between elastic and plastic deformation with examples.
4. A steel wire of length 2 m and radius 1 mm is stretched by 1 mm under a load. Calculate Young’s
modulus for the material. (Take load = 1.5 kgf, g = 9.8 m/s²)
5. Explain the factors affecting elasticity of materials.
6. The breaking stress of a steel wire is 5×10^8 N/m^2 What is the maximum length of the wire that
can hang vertically without breaking? (Density of steel = 7.8×10^3 kg/m^3
7. Define pressure and Pascal’s law. Mention one practical application of Pascal’s law.
8. A hydraulic lift has an input piston of area 0.02 m and an output piston of area 1.0 m^2 . If a force
of 200 N is applied on the smaller piston, find the load lifted by the larger piston.
9. Explain the concept of surface tension and write two factors on which it depends.
10. Water rises to a height of 5 cm in a capillary tube of radius 0.5 mm. Calculate the surface tension
of water. (Take density of water = 1000 kg/m^3, g = 9.8 m/s29.8\, m/s^29.8m/s2, angle of contact
= 0°)
11. Define streamline flow and turbulent flow. Mention any two differences between them.
12. A ball of radius 2 mm and density 8000 kg/m^3 falls through glycerine of density 1200 kg/m^3.
Calculate its terminal velocity. (η = 1.2 N·s/m², g = 9.8 m/s²)
