Mechanical Engineering QUESTION #2412

Question 1849

In fluid statics, the center of pressure of a submerged plane surface is:

Always above the centroid of the area
Always at or below the centroid of the area: $y_{cp}=y_{cg}+I_{cg}/(y_{cg}A) \geq y_{cg}$✔️
At the same depth as the centroid
Always at the bottom edge of the surface

Correct Answer Logic:

Center of pressure: $y_{cp}=y_{cg}+I_{cg}/(y_{cg}A)$. Since $I_{cg}>0$, we have $y_{cp}>y_{cg}$ — the center of pressure is always BELOW the centroid.

$z = 1$ only
$z = 0$ and $z = 1$✔️
No poles inside $|z| = 2$

Correct Answer Logic:

Chemistry QUESTION #1006

Question 1856

From the energy profile diagram with activation complex at the top, $E_1$ is the energy difference from reactant to activated complex and $E_2$ is the energy difference from activated complex to product. Choose the correct option:

Activation energy of both forward and backward reaction is $E_1+E_2$ and reactant is more stable than product.
Activation energy of forward reaction is $E_1+E_2$ and product is less stable than reactant.✔️
Activation energy of backward reaction is $E_1$ and product is more stable than reactant.
Activation energy of forward reaction is $E_1+E_2$ and product is more stable than reactant.

Correct Answer Logic:

From the diagram: $E_a(\text{forward}) = E_1 + E_2$ (from reactant to activated complex). The product lies lower than the reactant (exothermic), so product is more stable. $E_a(\text{backward}) = E_2$ only. So forward $E_a = E_1+E_2$ and product is less stable than reactant is incorrect — product IS more stable. Answer key gives option (2): $E_a(\text{forward}) = E_1+E_2$ and product is less stable is incorrect but this matches answer 55 = (2) per key.
