  • D. to time the spark
  • Discuss
  • 5. Which of the following statement is correct regarding petrol engines?

  • Options
  • A. A fine fuel spray mixed with air is ignited by the heat of compression which is at a high pressure.
  • B. The fuel supplied to the engine cylinder is mixed with necessary amount of air and the mixture in ignited with the help of a spark plug.

  • Options
  • A. 0
  • B. 50
  • C. 100

  • 7. The control rods in the control system of nuclear reactors are used to

  • Options
  • A. absorb excess neutrons
  • B. control fuel consumption
  • C. control temperature
  • D. all of these
  • Discuss
  • 8. In compression ignition engines, swirl denotes a

  • Options
  • A. haphazard motion of the gases in the chamber
  • B. rotary motion of the gases in the chamber
  • C. radial motion of the gases in the chamber
  • D. none of the above
  • Discuss
  • 9. Supercharging __________ the power developed by the engine.

  • Discuss
  • 10. Which of the following statement is wrong?

  • Options
  • A. In compression ignition engines, detonation occurs near the beginning of combustion.
  • B. Since the fuel, in compression ignition engines, is injected at the end of compression stroke, therefore, there will be no pre-ignition.
  • C. To eliminate knock in compression ignition engines, we want to achieve auto-ignition not early and desire a long delay period.
  • D. In compression ignition engines, because of hetrogeneous mixture, the rate of pressure rise is comparatively lower.
  • Discuss
