121. The basic principle of the rocket propulsion is the same as that of jet propulsion. Yes No ✅ The correct answer is option A.
122. The stagnation pressure rise in a centrifugal compressor takes place in the diffuser only in the impeller only in the diffuser and impeller in the inlet guide vanes only ✅ The correct answer is option C.
123. An axial compressor gives optimum performance at high speeds and large volume flows. Agree Disagree ✅ The correct answer is option A.
124. The efficiency of a jet engine is higher at low speeds high speeds low altitudes high altitudes ✅ The correct answer is option D.
125. The total heat rejected in a reciprocating air compressor is equal to the sum of the heat rejected during polytropic compression per kg of air and heat rejected in the intercooler per kg of air. TRUE FALSE ✅ The correct answer is option A.
126. In the aircraft propellers the propulsive matter is ejected from within the propelled body the propulsive matter is caused to flow around the propelled body its functioning does not depend upon the presence of air none of the above ✅ The correct answer is option A.
127. In a jet propulsion the propulsive matter is ejected from within the propelled body the propulsive matter is caused to flow around the propelled body its functioning does not depend upon presence of air none of the above ✅ The correct answer is option B.
128. For a two stage reciprocating compressor, compression from p1 to p3 is with perfect intercooling and no pressure losses. If compression in both the cylinders follows the same polytropic process and the atmospheric pressure is pa, then the intermediate pressure p2 is given by p2 = (p1 + p3)/2 p2 = p1.p3 P2 = Pa x p3/p1 p2 = pa p3/p1 ✅ The correct answer is option B.
129. Intercooling in gas turbines decreases net output but increases thermal efficiency increases net output but decreases thermal efficiency decreases net output and thermal efficiency both increases net output and thermal efficiency both ✅ The correct answer is option B.
130. In a centrifugal compressor, an increase in speed at a given pressure ratio causes increase in flow decrease in flow increase in efficiency increase in flow and decrease in efficiency ✅ The correct answer is option D.
