system, does its temperature
(A) rise
(B) fall
(C) remains the same
(D) fall below 00C
Briefly Justify Your Answer

3. Thermal capacity of a body depends upon

(A) The heat given
(B) The temperature raised
(C) The mass of the body
(D) None of the above
Give Calculations to Justify Your Answer

4. When two sample at different temperature are mixed, the temperature of mixture can be
(A) Lesser than lower or greater than higher temperature
(B) Equal to lower or higher temperature
(C) Greater than lower but lesser than higher temperature
(D) Average of lower and higher temp.
Give Calculations to Justify Your Answer

5. A rod of length 3m increases in length by 0.9mm, when temperature changes from 200C to 800C.
The co-efficient of linear expansion of the material of the rod is
(A) 5 x 10-4 / 0C
(B) 0.5 x 10-6 / 0C
(C) 0.5 x 10-5 / 0C
(D) 5 x 10-7 / 0C

6. A ring shaped piece of material is heated. If the material expands the hole will be
(A) expand
(B) contract
(C) expand or contract depending upon the width of the ring
(D) expand or contract depending upon the co-efficient of expansion
Briefly justify your Answer

7. Steam leaves the nozzle of an impulse turbine at a velocity of 840m/s at an angle of 18 O to the
direction of movement of the blades. The linear velocity of the blades is 360 m/s and the inlet and exit
angles of the blades are equal. Calculate -
(A) The entrance and exit angles of the blades.
(B) The magnitude and the direction of the steam at exit. Neglect the friction of the steam across
the blades.

8. What is meant by Calorific Value?

The mass analysis of a fuel is 87% carbon, 11% hydrogen, 2% oxygen. Calculate the volume of air
required in cubic metres at 1.0 bar and 27OC for perfect combustion per kg of fuel. Take the value of
R for air = 0.287 kJ/kg K. Mass analysis of air = 23% Oxygen, 77% Nitrogen. The atomic weight of
hydrogen is 1, carbon 12 and oxygen 16.

9. In a Freon-12 refrigerating plant, the refrigerant leaving the condenser has specific enthalpy of 50
kJ/kg. The pressure in the evaporator is 1.826 bar and the refrigerant leaves the evaporator at this
pressure and at a temperature of 0OC. Calculate -
(A) The dryness fraction of the freon at inlet to the evaporator.
(B) The refrigerating effect per minute if the flow rate of the refrigerant is 0.5 kg/s.

10. Find the calorific value of the fuel and the theoretical mass of air required for complete combustion of
one kg of fuel if the mass composition of the fuel oil is 84.6% carbon, 11.4% hydrogen, 0.4% sulphur
2.4% oxygen and 1.2% impurities.
Take the values -
Hydrogen Calorific value Atomic weight
MJ/kg
Hydrogen 144 1
Carbon 33.7 12
Sulphur 9.3 32
Oxygen -- 16
Mass analysis of air = 23% oxygen and 77% nitrogen.
