Answer all questions. x 15 75)
1. Write down Newton's three laws of motion.
Communication satellites orbit the earth at a height
of 36,000 km. How far is this from the centre of the
earth? Is such a satellite has a mass of 250 kG,
what is the force of attraction on it from the earth.
Or
Explain what is shear force and bending moments.
Define
Hardness

Wk 11
2. Write down the gas law and its equation.
Explain
Joules law
Dryness fraction.
An electric heater having resistance of 50 ohms is
connected to electric source. If it produces 180 joules
of heat in one second, find the potential difference
across the electrical heater.
Or
Define
Sensible heat
Latent heat.
Explain boiling point and effect of pressure on it.
3. Explain
Kinetic energy
Potential energy.
A 14300 kG aeroplane is flying at an altitude of 497
m at a speed of 214 km/H. Determine the
aeroplanes total mechanical energy.
Or
Write down the first and second law of
thermodynamics.

4. Explain
Electric current
Voltage
EMF.
A circuit consists of two resistors with resistances
R1 6.00 ohms and R2 1.50 ohms; A variable
resistor, the resistance Rvar which can be adjusted,
a resistor of unknown value Ru, and 9.0 volt battery
connected as shown in the figure. When Rvar is
adjusted to 12 ohms, there is zero current through
the ammeter what is the unknown resistance Ru?
Or
Define
Direct current
Alternation and current.
Explain
Ohms law
Kirchoff's law.
Explain

Explain how electricity is produced and distributed
in a ship.
What are the safety precautions to be taken during
bunkering (fuelling) of a ship?
Or
Explain how fresh water is produced from sea water
in a ship.
Why is the oily bilge water such an important item
in a ships engine room?
What are the various fire fighting fixed and portable
equipment available in a ship?
