121. Recrystallisation temperature can belowered by
- purification of metal
- grain refinement
- working at lower temperature
- all of the above
- none of the above.
Correct answer: (D)
all of the above
122. Recrystallization temperature is one
- at which crystals first start forming from molten metal when it is cooled
- at which new spherical crystals first begin to form from the old deformed one when a strained metal is heated
- at which change of allotropic form takes place
- at which crystals grow bigger in size
- at which crystals are destroyed on heating.
Correct answer: (B)
at which new spherical crystals first begin to form from the old deformed one when a strained metal is heated
123. Slow plastic defomiation of metals under a constant stress is known as
- creep
- fatigue
- endurance
- plastic deformation
- non-plastic deformation.
124. Solder is an alloy consisting of
- tin, antimony, copper
- tin and copper
- tin and lead
- lead and zinc
- lead and copper.
Correct answer: (B)
tin and copper
125. Steel contains
- 80% or more iron
- 50% or more iron
- alloying elements like chromium, tungsten nickel and copper
- elements like phosphorus, sulphur and silicon in varying quantities
- high quantities of sulphur.
Correct answer: (B)
50% or more iron
126. Steel made from phosphatic iron is
- brittle
- hard
- ductile
- tough
- malleable.
Correct answer: (A)
brittle
127. Stress relaxation is- the phenomenon
- in which parts are not loaded
- in which stress remains constant on in-creasing load
- in which deformation tends to loosen the joint and produces a stress reduced
- stress reduces on increasing load
- none of the above.
Correct answer: (C)
in which deformation tends to loosen the joint and produces a stress reduced
128. Structural steel contains following principal alloying elements
- nickel, chromium and manganese
- tungsten, molybdenum and phosphorous
- lead, tin, aluminium
- zinc, sulphur, and chromium
- none of the above.
Correct answer: (A)
nickel, chromium and manganese
129. Sulphur in pig iron tends to make it
- hard'
- soft
- ductile
- tough
- malleable.
130. Sulphur in steel
- acts as deoxidiser
- reduces the grain size
- decreases tensile strength and hardness
- lowers the toughness and transverse ductility
- increases hardness.
Correct answer: (D)
lowers the toughness and transverse ductility
