1. grey body is one whose absorptivity

  3. is equal to its emissivity
  4. does not vary with temperature and. wavelength of the incident ray
  5. none of the above.

Correct answer: (C)
is equal to its emissivity

2. non-dimensional number generally associated with natural convection heat transfer is

  1. Grashoff number
  2. Nusselt number
  3. Weber number
  4. Prandtl number
  5. Reynold number.

Correct answer: (A)
Grashoff number

3. perfect black body is one which

  1. is black in colour
  2. reflects all heat
  3. transmits all heat radiations
  4. abslprbs heat radiations of all wave lengths falling on it
  5. fully opaque.

Correct answer: (D)
abslprbs heat radiations of all wave lengths falling on it

4. steam pipe is to be insulated by two insulating materials put over each other. For best results

  1. better insulation should be put over pipe and better one over it
  2. inferior insulation should be put over pipe and better one over it
  3. both may be put in any order
  4. whether to put inferior OIL over pipe or the better one would depend on steam temperature
  5. unpredictable.

Correct answer: (A)
better insulation should be put over pipe and better one over it

5. Thermal conductivity of glass-wool varies from sample to sample because of variation in

  1. composition
  2. density
  3. porosity
  4. structure
  5. all of the above.

Correct answer: (E)
all of the above.

6. 0% of incident radiant energy on the surface of a thermally transparent body is reflected back. If the transmissivity of the body be 0.15, then the emissivity of surface is

  1. 0.45
  2. 0.55
  3. 0.4
  4. 0.75
  5. 0.60.

Correct answer: (A)
0.45

7. A grey body is one whose absorptivity

  1. varies with temperature
  2. varies with the wave length of incident ray
  3. varies with both
  4. does not vary with temperature and wave length of the incident ray
  5. there is no such criterion.

Correct answer: (D)
does not vary with temperature and wave length of the incident ray

8. According to Prevost theory of heat exchange

  1. it is impossible to transfer heat from low temperature source to t high temperature source
  2. heat transfer by radiation requires no medium
  3. all bodies above absolute zero emit radiation
  4. heat transfer in most of the cases takes place by combination of conduction, convection and radiation
  5. rate of heat transfer depends on thermal conductivity and temperature difference.

Correct answer: (C)
all bodies above absolute zero emit radiation

9. bsorptivity of a body will be equal to its emissivity

  1. at all temperatures
  2. at one particular temperature
  3. when system is under thermal equi-librium
  4. at critical temperature
  5. for a polished body.

Correct answer: (C)
when system is under thermal equi-librium

10. ccording of Kirchhoff's law,

  1. radiant heat is proportional to fourth power of absolute temperature
  2. emissive power depends on temperature
  3. emissive power and absorptivity are constant for all bodies
  4. ratio of emissive power to absorptive power is maximum for perfectly black body
  5. ratio of emissive power to absorptive power for all bodies is same and is equal to the emissive power of a perfectly black body.

Correct answer: (E)
ratio of emissive power to absorptive power for all bodies is same and is equal to the emissive power of a perfectly black body.
