Interview Questions for Mechanical Engineering Set7
1. What parameters influence the tool life ?
1. Tool material
2. Work material
3. Speed, feed and depth of cut
4. Tool geometry work system
5. Cutting fluid
6. Built up edge
7. Vibration behaviour of the machine tool.
2. Mention the function of intermediate stage in a generalised measurement
system.
(i) Amplify signal without affect ing its waveform
(ii) Remove unwanted noise signals that tend to obscure the input
(iii) Capable of doing other conditioning like differentiation/integration, A/D conversion etc.
3. What is a signal flow graph ?
A signal flow graph of a system is a graphical model in which nodes represent the system
variables and directed branches between the nodes represent relationship between the
variables. In a signal flow graph, a forward path originates from the input mode and
terminates at output mode without encountering any mode more than once.
4. Explain the difference between rotational and irrotational flow.
In rotational flow the vorticity is non zero and in irrotational flow it is zero. In irrotational flow
the net rotation of a fluid element about its own mass centre is zero as it moves from one
place to another. For it, dv/dx = du/dy.
5. Define the term stability of a feed back control system ?
A system is said to be stable if the output of a system after fluctuations, variations or oscilla-
tions, settles at a reasonable value for any change in input.
6. What is meant by precision ?Precision is defined as the ability of instrument to reproduce a certain set of readings within a
given accuracy.
7. What is boundary layer ?
Boundary layer is the fluid layer in the neighbourhood of a solid boundary where the effects
of fluid friction are predominant.
8. On what account the boundry layer exists ?
Boundary layer m fluid flow exists on account of fluid density.
9. Explain the differe nce betwee n laminar flow and turbulent flow.
In laminar flow the fluid particles move along smooth, regular paths which can be predicted

The order of the system is the order of the highest derivative of the ordinary differential
equation with constant coefficients which defines the system mathematically.
70. What is Bode plot ?
Bode plot is a logarithmic plot used to represent transfer functions. The Bode plot consists of
two plots namely.
(i) The plot of magnitude in db (on linear scale) vs. frequency to (on log scale)
(ii) The plot of phase angle in degrees (on linear scale) vs. frequency co (on log scale)
71. Navier stokes equation represents the conservation of which quantity ?
Momentum.
72. What are the characteristics of precision ?
(i) If a number of measurements are made on same true value, the degree of closeness of
these measurements gives precision
(ii) It is a measure of the degree of repeatability or reproducibility of the measuring system.
73. What is meant by loading ?
During the act of measurement the measuring instrument takes energy from the signal
source or measured medium and thus the signal source is altered. This effect is called
loading.
74. Give two uses of Bode plots.
(i) They are the logarithmic plots used to represent transfer functions
(ii) They are used in the calculation of gain margin and phase margin.
75. What is the name of nondimensional group for ratio of inertia force to gravity force.
Froude number.
76. The head loss in a fully developed laminar flow in a circular pipe due to friction is directly
proportional to ... ?
Square of mean velocity.
77. For what type of flow, the streamlines, pathlines and streaklines are virtually identical ?
Steady flow.
78. How the streamlines and equipotential lines are related in a flow field ?
They are orthogoial everywhere in the flow field.
79. Under what kind and condition of a fluid the velocity potential exists ?
Irrotational flow.
80. Where should centre of gravity of a body lie for it to float in stable equilibrium ?

e.g. should be located below the metacentre.
81. For fully developed flow through a pipe, what is the ratio of maximum to average velocity ?
Ans: 2.
82. Out o f centr ifugal, axial and positive displacement pumps, which has maximum specific
speed and which has minimum ?
Axial pump has maximum specific speed and reciprocating pump has minimum.
83. Specific speed of a turbine is 800. What type of turbine is this ?
Kaplan turbine.
84. In which type of lubrication system the starting friction is low ?
Hydrostatic lubrication.
85. At which point the cavitation is most likely to occur in a hydel plant ?
At turbine rotor exit.
86. What is the difference between lower pair and higher pair ?
In a kinematic pair, if the elements have surface contact when in motion, the pair is called
lower pair and if elements have line or point contact the pair is called higher pair.
87. What do you understrand by inversions and how many inversions are possible in a
kinematic chain having 'n' links ?
Inversions are different mechanisms obtained by fixing different links in a kinematic chain but
keeping relative motions of links unchanged with respecat to one another. A kinematic chain
with 'n' links can have 'n' inversions.
88. What is the difference between basic kinematic chain and compound kinematic chain ?
What is the criteria for a chain to be constrained ?
A basic kinematic chain consists of four kinematic links and a compound kinematic chain is a
constrained chain of more than four links. A chain is constrained if no. of binary joints and half
of number of higher pairs is equal to 3/2 of no. of links minus 2.
89. What is the difference between a machine and a mechanism ?
A mechanism consists of links forming a constrained kinematic chain. Its function is basically
to transmit or modify motion. A machine is a mechanism but here we are concerned with
forces to be transmitted and it is used to modify mechanical work.
90. In which type of motion, acaceleration is directly proportional to displacement ?
SHM.
91. What is the function of a transducer element ?
The function of a transducer element is to sense and convert the desired input into a more
convenient and practicable form to be handled by measurement system.
92. What is the direction of tangential acceleration ?The direction of tangential acceleration may be same or opposite to that of angular velocity.
93. What is the number of degrees of freedom constrained in each case by the kinematic
pairs.
(i) Itevolute pair, (ii) cylindrical pair, (iii) Screw pair, (iv) Spherical pair.
Ans: (i) Revolute pairsingle degree of freedom.
(ii) cylindrical pairtwo degrees of freedom.
(iii) Screw pairone degree of freedom.
(iv) spherical pairthree degrees of freedom.

It controls the piston position for cut off of steam, for release of steam and compression
position for steam in cylinder.
95. What is the purpose of Corliss valve in place of D'-slide valve in steam engine ?
Corliss valve reduces condensation, provides independent control on admission, cut off,
release and compression, and reduces driving power requirements.
96. On what factor the size of cam depends ?
Size of cam depends on base circle.
97. If base circle diameter of cam increases, what happens to pressure angle ?
It decreases.
98. If angular speed of cam is increased two times, how much jerk will be increased ?
Eight times.
99. Define primary and secondary transducers ?
A primary transducer senses a physical phenomena and converts it to an analogous output.
The analogous output is then converted into an electrical signal by secondary transducer.
100. What is the relationship between (i) axes of spin, precession, and applied gyroscopic
torque and (ii) in between their planes ?
The axes of spin, precession, and applied gyroscopic torque are contained in two planes
perpendicular to each other, and planes of spin, precession, and applied gyroscopic torque in
the three planes perpendicular to one another.
