Q 1. Answer any four parts of the following. 5x4=20

a) A steal bar 1.5 m long, 50 mm wide and 20 mm thick is subjected to an axial


tensile load of 120 kN. If the extension in the length of the bar is 0.9 mm,
find the stress, strain and modulus of elasticity of the bar material.
b) Define (i) Newton’s law of viscosity, (ii) flow and non flow work.
c) State and derive Pascal’s law.
d) A closed system having a mass of 50 kg has an initial velocity of 10 m/s.
During a process its velocity increases to 30 m/s and its elevation also rises
by 40 m. During the same process, the system receives 30000 J of heat and
work done by the system is 2700 J. Find the change in the internal energy
of the system during the process.

features.

(Poisson’s ratio).
b) Prove that violation of Clausius statement leads to violation of Kelvin-Plank
statement.
c) Define alloy steels. Why alloying elements are added to steel.

reservoir at 300 K at the rate of 24 kJ/min. Make calculations for the engine
efficiency and the temperature of the thermal reservoir supplying heat to the
engine.

static processes A, B, C as shown in Figure 1. The internal energy at 1 is 800
J. The work transfer during paths A, B, and C are 120 J, 180J and 150 J
respectively. Calculate the internal energy at state 2 and heat energy
transferred during these processes.

pressure is 15 bar. Heat is added at constant volume until the pressure rises
to 40 bar. Calculate (a) the compression ratio (b) the air-standard efficiency,

length, freely supported at its end points. It is loaded at B and C as shown.

force is compressive or tensile.

the help of neat sketches.

At inlet to a certain nozzle, the fluid parameters are: Enthalpy = 2850 kJ/kg;
velocity = 50 m/s; area = 0.1 m² and specific volume = 0.18 m³/kg. At the
discharge end the enthalpy is 2650 kJ/kg and the specific volume is 0.49
m³/kg. Make calculations for the velocity of fluid at exit from the nozzle,
mass flow rate of fluid, and the exit area of the nozzle. The nozzle is
horizontal and there is negligible heat loss from it.
