Question 341. The following types of materials are usually the most ductile
  1.    Face centered cubic lattice
  2.    Body centered cubic lattice
  3.    Hexagonal close packed lattice
  4.    All of the above
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Face centered cubic lattice
A face-centered cubic crystal structure will exhibit more ductility (deform more readily under load before breaking) than a body-centered cubic structure.
The bcc lattice, although cubic, is not closely packed and forms strong metals. Alpha-iron and tungsten have the bcc form.
Question 342. Sulphur in pig iron tends to make it
  1.    Hard
  2.    Soft
  3.    Ductile
  4.    Tough
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Hard
Presence of sulfur tends to make iron hard and produces unsound castings. Wrought iron and steel produced from iron containing sulfur makes wrought iron and steel to be brittle when heated.
Question 343. Which one of the following metals would work-harden more quickly than the others?
  1.    Copper
  2.    Brass
  3.    Lead
  4.    Silver
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Brass
Unlike steel alloys, brass cannot be hardened by heating.
Brass can only be strain or work-hardened.
The hardening occurs when the material is worked mechanically, e.g. by cold working.
The action of force does not harden brass
Question 344. Nimonic contains __________ percentage of nickel as that of Inconel.
  1.    Same
  2.    Less
  3.    More
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Same
Nimonic is nickel-based high-temperature low creep superalloys. Nimonic alloys typically consist of more than 50% nickel and 20% chromium with additives such as titanium and aluminium.
Question 345. In low carbon steels, presence of small quantities of sulphur improves
  1.    Weldability
  2.    Formability
  3.    Machinability
  4.    Hardenability
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Machinability
Sulfur is normally regarded as an impurity and has an adverse effect on impact properties when a steel is high in sulphur and low in manganese.
Sulphur improves machinability but lowers transverse ductility and notched impact toughness and has little effects on the longitudinal mechanical properties.
Question 346. The ultimate tensile strength of low carbon steel by working at a high strain rate will
  1.    Decrease
  2.    Increase
  3.    Remain constant
  4.    First increase and then decrease
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Increase
The ultimate tensile strength of low carbon steel by working at a high strain rate will Increase
Question 347. Hardness of steel depends on
  1.    Amount of carbon it contains
  2.    The shape and distribution of the carbides in iron
  3.    Method of fabrication
  4.    Contents of alloying elements
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Amount of carbon it contains
Depending on the temperature and composition of the steel, it can be hardened or softened.
To make steel harder, it must be heated to very high temperatures.
The final result of exactly how hard the steel becomes depends on the amount of carbon present in the metal.
Question 348. Normalising of steel is done to
  1.    Refine the grain structure
  2.    Remove strains caused by cold working
  3.    Remove dislocations caused in the internal structure due to hot working
  4.    All of the above
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> All of the above
Normalising of steel is done to Refine the grain structure and Remove strains caused by cold working and Remove dislocations caused in the internal structure due to hot working
Question 349. The coordination number of a face centered cubic space lattice is
  1.    Six
  2.    Twelve
  3.    Eighteen
  4.    Twenty
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Twelve
The face-centered cubic (fcc) has a coordination number of 12 and contains 4 atoms per unit cell.
The body-centered cubic (bcc) has a coordination number of 8 and contains 2 atoms per unit cell.
The simple cubic has a coordination number of 6 and contains 1 atom per unit cell
Question 350. The composition of silver solder is
  1.    Silver, copper, zinc
  2.    Silver, tin, nickel
  3.    Silver, lead, zinc
  4.    Silver, copper, aluminium
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Silver, copper, zinc
silver solder is composition of Silver, copper, zinc
