The question paper of Engineering Sciences will comprise of three parts viz. Part A, Part B and Part C. Part A
which contains 20 questions (15 to be answered) will be common to all subject of science and engineering.
Part B will have 25 questions (20 to be answered) from Mathematics and Engineering Aptitude. In Part C
there will be 7 subject-areas with 10 questions in each subject. The candidates will be required to answer any
20 questions out of 70. For more details please visit the scheme of examination and syllabus which are already
available on our web.
Here are some sample questions of Part B and Part C.

A cantilever beam shown in the figure is subjected to a downward load P at the free
end and an upward uniformly distributed load (intensity P/L per init length)
throughout the length of the beam. The beam cross-section has a moment of inertia I.

In a laboratory test, a well insulated horizontal nozzle has a flow of steam at a mass
flow rate of 0.2 kg/s. Steam enters the nozzle at 1 MPa, 400
o
C with negligibly small
kinetic energy. The condition at nozzle outlet is measured to be 500 kPa and 350
o
C.
Steam properties: specific enthalpy at inlet = 3263.88 kJ/kg, at exit = 3167.65 kJ/kg.
The exit velocity of steam in m/s is
(1) 13.87 (2) 43.87 (3) 138.7 (4) 438.7

Air contained in a frictionless piston-cylinder arrangement interacts with the
surroundings and undergoes an isobaric process from an initial state of 300 K and
0.01 m

to a final state at which the volume is 0.03 m

. Assume air to behave as an
ideal gas with a gas constant of 0.287 kJ/kgK and a C
v
value of 0.767 kJ/kgK. If the
work transferred during this process is 10 kJ, the heat transferred during the process is
(1) 16.72 kJ from surroundings to the air (3) 36.72 kJ from surroundings to the air
(2 36.72 kJ from air to the surroundings (4) 26.72 kJ from surroundings to the air
