31. Calculate PH value for 2% NAOH solution.

Ans: Given Data

We know, 2% NaOH ~ 2gm NaOH in
1000𝑊 1000 𝒙 2 100 ml solution
Concentration, S=[OH-]= = = 0.5 M
𝑀𝑉 40 𝒙 100 hence,
again, POH = - log [OH-] = - log [0.5] = 0.301 W= 2 gm
V = 100 ml
We have, PH + POH = 14 MNaOH = 23+16+1 = 40
PH = 14 - POH = 14 - 0.301 = 13.699 Concentration,S=[OH-]=?
PH = ?

b) A car running at 72km/h and taking U turn in 4 sec. what is the acceleration of the car?

Ans: Given Data

Acceleration while taking U-turn, V = 72 Km/hr = 72 x 1000/3600
a = v2/r = 20 m/s
= 202/25.464 t = 4 sec
= 15.07 m/s2 distance travelled, s = vt = 20 x
4 = 80 m
again , s=rꝊ
hence, r = s/Ꝋ = 80/π = 25.464

33. a) Steel pipe of 120mm dia rests horizontally having temp of 25 degree Celsius, K=0.05
W/m.k, nusselt number =30, calculate heat transfer coefficient.

Ans: Lc= Characteristic length=
We know, hydraulic dia for pipe=
4A/P = 4 x (πD2/4)/ πD =
Nusselt number, D=120 mm = 0.12 m
Nu = h Lc / K T= 25+273=298 K
h = Nu.K / Lc K=0.05 W/m.k
= 30 x 0.05 / 0.12 Nu = 30
= 12.5 W/m2 . K h= ?
b) Sum of two numbers is 20, If cube of one number multiplied by other is a maximum,
calculate the two numbers.

Ans:
x+y=20 ----(1) and x3y is maximum
Now take the value of y from equation (1).
= x3 (20-x)= 20x3-x4
Now differentiate in terms of x and putting it equal to 0 which is the slope of the graph at the
maxima or minima
0=60x2- 4x3 , which gives x = 0 or 15
as if x = 0 here comes minima thus x = 15 which makes the numbers as 15 & 5

34.a) A gas with 27 degree Celsius temperature, atmospheric pressure, suddenly compressed
to half of its original volume, calculate final temperature and pressure.

Ans: Given Data

Sudden compression = isentropic process
Again, T1 =27+273= 300 K
T2 / T1 = (V1/ V2)(γ-1) P2 / P1 = (V1/ V2)γ P1 = 101325 Pa
T2 = T1 x (V1/ V2)(γ-1) P2= P1 x (V1/ V2)γ V1= V (let)
=
300 x (V/ 0.5V)(1.4-1) = 101325 x (V/ 0.5 V)1.4 V2= 0.5V
=
300 x (2)0.4 = 101325 x (2)1.4 T2 =?
=
395.85 K = 267398.3 Pa P2 = ?
γ = 1.4

b) Single point cutting tools having Taylor Exponent 0.25, if cutting speed is halved, what
will be the tool life?
Ans: Given Data
We have, n= Taylor exponent = 0.25
Taylor’s equation for tool life expectancy , V1 =cutting speed= V (let)
VTn= C T1 = tool life= T (let)
which gives us, V2 = 0.5 V
V1 T1n = V2 T2n T2 = ?
or T2 = T1 x (V1/ V2)(1/n) = T x (V/ 0.5V)(1/0.25)
= T x (2)(1/0.25) = 16T
So, cutting speed is halved then tool life will be increased by
16th times

36.a) A tyre is designated 145/70 R 12 69 S. What do you understand by "145/70 R" ?
Ans:
145/70 R means ,
 The section width or thickness
of tyre from shoulder to
shoulder is 145 mm.
 The aspect ratio is 70%, aspect
ratio is defined as the ratio of
section height to section width
of the tyre. In this case it means
section height is 70% of
section width I,e. 101.5 mm.
 R represents that the tyre is
radial.
b) A hydroelectric turbine having head of 24.5 m, flow rate 10 m3/s, efficiency 90% and
speed 4 rps, which type of turbine to be used.
Ans: Given Data
We know, turbine power H=24.5 m
Pturbine = γHQη = 9.81 x 1000 x 24.5 x 10 x 0.9 = 2163.105 KW Q = 10 m3/s
Again turbine specific speed, η = 90 % = 0.9
N = 4 x 60 rpm = 240 rpm
N√P 240√2163.105 Types of turbine = ?
Ns = (5/4)
= = 204.78
(H) (24.5)(5/4)

As specific speed is between 50~250 so Francis turbine should be used.

b) In a coal fired power plant boiler consuming feed water 215 Kg per hour, having enthalpy
change of 150 KJ/Kg, having coal consuming rate 50Kg/hour (data may differ) , coal having
calorific value of 2000 KJ/Kg. Find boiler efficiency.
Ans: Given Data
We know, ms=Mass of water evaporated into
steam = 215 Kg/hr
mf = Mass of fuel used = 50Kg/hr
ηBoiler =
ms (h-hf1) Change of enthalpy = enthalpy of
mf . C steam – enthalpy of feed water
=h-hf1 = 150 KJ / Kg
215 x 150 C= Calorific value of fuel = 2000
= KJ/Kg
50 x 2000
Boiler efficiency, ηBoiler = ?
= 32.25 %
