Consider the following statements pertaining to centrifugal pumps: 1. The inlet to the impeller of a centrifugal pump is always axial, while the outlet may be radial or inclined. 2. The impeller may be shrouded on both sides with an eye at the center and vanes curved backward. 3. Impeller of double-entry type has a balanced radial thrust. 4. Un-shrouded and part-shrouded impeller are used only where high efficiency is unimportant. Which of these statements are correct?
Product X is produced by mixing chemical A and chemical B in the ratio of 5 : 4. Chemical A is prepared by mixing two raw materials, P and Q, in the ratio of 1 : 3. Chemical B is prepared by mixing raw materials, Q and R, in the ratio of 2 : 1. Then the final mixture is prepared by mixing 8640 units of product X with water. If the concentration of the raw material Q in the final mixture is 50%, how much water had been added to product X?

Cloth required for trousers is 20 m B. Average length of cloth required for all the dresses = Cloth required for suit C. Initially, the cloth was 45 m D. Cloth required for shirt is 15 m
To keep the power input constant for a stirred vessel operating under fully developed turbulent flow conditions (constant power number), if the impeller diameter is increased by 20%, the impeller speed should be decreased by a factor of
A mixture of oils is prepared by mixing two mixtures A and B in the ratio 2 ∶ 1. Mixture A is made by mixing olive oil and jasmine oil in ratio 3 ∶ 1, while mixture B is made by mixing coconut oil and almond oil in ratio 2 ∶ 3. How much jasmine oil and coconut oil is required to prepare 750 ml of the final mixture of oils respectively?
The mixing vat in a factory receives liquid ingredients through six separate value--- labeled R.S.T.U,Y and Z -- each of which has exactly two settings: open and closed.The mixing vat operator must ensure that each valve is set open or closed according to the following conditions: If T is open, both S and Z must be closed, R and Z cannot both be closed at the same time; If Y is closed, Z must also be closed;S and U cannot both be open at the same time. Which of the following, if given to the mixing vat operator as an instruction, would not determine the setting of any other valve ?
Consider the following statements in respect of ‘mixers’ 1. Mass batch mixing of ingredients is the most desirable method. 2. Charging all materials into a drum mixer is done ‘at once’. 3. The quantity of material fed into a mixer should be not more than the quantity that can be used in less than 30 minutes after completion of mixing. 4. Reversing mixers have less capacity than tilting mixers. 5. In large mixers, additional time of mixing is allowed. Which of the above statements are correct?
