    e to Longitudinal Stress”.

    1. The longitudinal stress is _____ stress across the section.


    a) Shear
    b) Bending
    c) Tensile
    d) Compressive
    View Answer

    Answer: c
    Explanation: The tendency of longitudinal stress in a cylinder is to turn away longitudinally. The longitudinal stress is tensile stress across
    the section.

    2. The longitudinal stress in the shell is _________


    a) pd/3t
    b) pd/4t
    c) pd/2t
    d) pd/6t
    View Answer

    Answer: b
    Explanation: As longitudinal stress is half the circumferential stress, then f = total pressure/ resisting section.
    f = p × π/4 d2 / π d t
    f = pd/4t.

    3. The ratio of hoop stress to maximum shear stress is _________


    a) 2
    b) 3
    c) 4
    d) 6
    View Answer

    Answer: c
    Explanation: Maximum shear stress (q) = (hoop stress – longitudinal stress) / 2
    = pd/8t
    = pr/4t
    The ratio of hoop stress to maximum shear stress is 4.

    4. At any point on the circumference of the cylinder, the longitudinal and hoop stress are _______
    a) Parallel
    b) Equal
    c) Orthogonal
    d) Radial
    View Answer

    Answer: c
    Explanation: At any point on the circumference of the cylindrical shell, the longitudinal (axial stress) and hoop stress(circumferential stress)

    are always orthogonal to each other.

    5. Calculate the axial stress induced in the pipe is the water mean of 1.5 metres diameter and 20 mm thick is subjected to an internal
    pressure of 1.5 N/mm2.
    a) 28.125 N/mm2
    b) 35.675 N/mm2
    c) 46.785 N/mm2
    d) 67.845 N/mm2
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: Longitudinal stress ( axial stress) = pd / 4t.
    f= 1.5 × 1500 / 4 × 20
    f= 28.125 N/mm2.

    6. Saprotrophs are also known as _________


    a) Detritus Feeders
    b) Decomposers
    c) Tertiary consumers
    d) Omnivores
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: Saprotrophs feed on the parts of dead organisms, wales of living organisms and partially decomposed matter. They are also
    known as the detritivores. Termites, crabs etc. are the examples saprotrophs.

    7. Energy flows through the ecosystem in the form of __________ bonds.


    a) C-C
    b) N-N
    c) O-O
    d) F-F
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: Energy flows through the ecosystem in the form of carbon-carbon bonds when respiration occurs, the carbon-carbon bonds
    are broken and the carbon is combined with oxygen to form carbon dioxide.

    8. Energy does not recycle.


    a) True
    b) False
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: Energy is neither created nor destroyed. All energy comes from the sun, and that the ultimate fate of all energy in ecosystem
    is to be lost as heat. Energy does not recycle.

    a) Food web
    b) Food network
    c) Food system
    d) Food cache
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: Food web is a network of food chains where different types of organisms are connected at different trophic levels. There are
    the number of options of eating and being eaten at each trophic level.

    10. Ecological pyramids were first devised by __________


    a) Earnest Haeckel
    b) Roger Federer
    c) Charles Eltan
    d) Smith Nell
    View Answer

    Answer: c
    Explanation: An ecological pyramid is a graphic representation of an ecological parameter like a number of individuals. The ecological
    pyramids were first devised by British ecologist Charles Elton in 1927.

    11. Which of the following is correct?


    a) Phytoplankton-zooplanktons- fish
    b) Zooplanktons -protozoan-fish
    c) Grass- fish- zoo plankton
    d) Zooplanktons- phytoplankton-fish
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: The sequence of eating and being eaten in an ecosystem is known as a food chain. Some of the common examples of the
    simple food chain are grass -grasshopper -frog- snake- hawk (grassland ecosystem).
    Phytoplankton-zooplanktons- fish (pond ecosystem).

    12. Wholesome water is also known as _________


    a) Palatable water
    b) Quality water
    c) Lethal water
    d) Toxic water
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: Palatable water is the water that it is free from excessive temperature, colour, turbidity taste and odour. It is well aerated. The
    Wholesome water indicates palatable water.

    13. Rate of demand is also known as __________


    a) Domestic demand

    5/20/23, 9:58 PM Thin Cylinder due to Longitudinal Stress Multiple Choice Questions - Sanfoundry
    Answer: b
    Explanation: Rate of demand is the rate of water to be supplied per person per day it is expressed as litres per capita per day.
    Per capita demand (or) rate of demand = Q/P×365 litres per day.

    14. Water works are generally design with design period of __________
    a) 25 years
    b) 30 years
    c) 45 years
    d) 50 years
    View Answer

    Answer:b
    Explanation: Water supply projects are designed to serve our specific period of time after completion of the project. This time period is
    called a design period. The water works are generally designed with a design period of 30 years.

    15. What is a design period for storage dam?


    a) 45 years
    b) 50 years
