Q.10 The continued use of shore water in the ship boilers will lead to:
Q.12. Chromium is a nobler metal when compared to that of steel. In some marine applications Chromium is
electroplated to
the steel surfaces. Why?
A. Chromium is a more noble metal so it will not get corroded and thus steel surfaces will remain protected
B. Chromium plating provides corrosion protection as well as high glossiness and high hardness for better
wear resistance
and reduced friction to the steel surfaces
C. Chromium plating is required for providing high glossiness and high hardness for better wear resistance and reduced
friction to the steel surfaces and not for corrosion protection
D. Chromium reacts with steel to form an alloy during electroplating which is corrosion resistant
ANS : B
A. Spring type
B. floating
C. U type
D. fixed type
ANS : C
