Automobile Engineering MCQs

103. The function of a proportioning control valve (PCV) in a brake system is to

ensure that equal pressure is supplied to the front and rear brakes throughout every braking operation
reduce the brake fluid pressure when the brakes approach their lockup point
cause less brake fluid pressure to act on the front brakes than on the rear brakes when the fluid pressure exceeds a predetermined level
cause less brake fluid
✅ The correct answer is option D.

105. For the same maximum pressure and temperature

Diesel cycle is more efficient than Otto cycle
Otto cycle is more efficient than Diesel cycle
both Otto cycle and Diesel cycle are equally efficient
none of the above
✅ The correct answer is option A.

109. The advantage of having a tandem master cylinder arrangement in automobiles is that it

enhances safety by serving two independent lines in a divided-line brake circuit
enhances safety by activating the brakes using vacuum pressure in the event of brake fluid loss
supplies equal fluid pressure to each line of a divided-line brake circuit, thereby preventing the brakes from dragging on one side
boosts the brake fluid
✅ The correct answer is option A.
