3.5. Electric discharge machining imposes largerforces on tool than Electrochemical machining. Ans. False Explanation. Only in ECM process, electrolyte is pumped at a higher pressure, through the small gap between the tool and work piece, which induces large force on the tool. 3.6. Electric discharge machining is more efficient process than Electrochemical machining for producing large non-circular holes. Ans. True Explanation. In EDM process, tool material need not be harder than work material. Hence the tool material can easily be shaped even if it is larger in size. Normally the tool should reproduce the contour of the specimen (non circular hole) required. Orbital control facility also can be connected to EDM where the X, Y, Z controls are carried out as per given 3D command. 3.7. Ultrasonic machining is about the best processfor making holes in glass which are comparable in size with the thickness of the sheet. Ans. True Explanation. For ultrasonic machining the job need not be a conductor of electricity. It can be used for drilling precise holes and intricate shaped machining on ceramic, glass, quartz carbide, etc. 3.8. CNC machines are more accurate than conventional machines because they have a high resolution encoder and digital read-outs for positioning. Ans. True Explanation. Conventional mechanical systems have their own limitation due to backlash of screws marking and reading inaccuracies etc. High resolution encoders and digital read-outs can be used for positioning of the order of micro millimetre also. 3.9. CNC machines are more economical to use even for simple turning jobs. ADs. False Explanation. It is more economical only when it is mass produced as the machine overheads are very high for CNC machines. 3,10. The continuity equation in the form ,1. V = 0 always represents an incompressible flow regardless of whether the flow is steady or unsteady. Ans. False Explanation. AV = 0 indicates that there is no velocity change with respect to time. It is true only for incompressible steady flow process.
. 3.11. Bernoulli's equation can be applied b~een . field. \
ADs. True
Explanation. Bernoulli's equation of the form - + - + gz = C is applicable to all points along the 2 P same streamline even if the flow is rotational. For irrotational flow, its application in the normal direction (that is points on different stream lines) will yield the same constant.
3.12. In a venturi meter, the angle of the diverging section is more than that of converging section.
Ans. False Explanation. The angle of diverging section is kept small to reduce the possibility of flow separation. Due to this the angle of converging section is more as compared to its diverging section.
3.13. As the transition from laminar to turbulentjlow value of the drag coefficient drops. is induced a crossjlow past a circular cylinder, the
Ans. True Explanation. Flow in a turbulent boundary layer can penetrate an adverse pressure gradient farther than can a laminar boundary layer, before separation is likely to take place. Hence when transition occurs in the boundary layer of the cylinder, the point of separation is suddenly set back to a position farther on the downstream surface of the cylinder, with the result the drag coefficient decreases appreciably.
3.14. The necessary and sufficient condition which brings about separation of boundary layer is dp > O. dx
Ans. False Explanation. For separation to occur, two conditions are to required to be fullfilled.
(I) There should be an adverse pressure gradient, i.e. :~ > 0, and (il) Mechanisms such as friction to reduce the kinetic energy of the fluid stream should
