Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives and click the button corresponding to it. The first working steam powered vehicle was designed and most likely built by Ferdinand Verbies, a Flemish member of a Jesuit mission in China around 1672. It was a 65 cm long scale model toy for the Chinese Emperor, that was unable to carry a driver or a passenger. It is not known if Verbiest's model was ever built. Nicolas- Joseph Cugnot is widely credited with building the first full scale, self propelled mechanical vehicle or automobile in about 1769; he also created a steam powered tricycle. He constructed two steam tractors for the French Army, one of which is preserved in the French National Conservatory of Arts and Crafts. His inventions were however handicapped by problems of water supply and maintaining steam pressure. In 1801, Richard Trevithick built and demonstrated his Puffing Devil road locomotive, believed by many to be the first demonstration of a steam powered road vehicle. It was unable to maintain sufficient steam pressure for long periods. Sentiment against steam powered road vehicles led to the Locomotive Acts of 1865. In 1807 Nicephore Niepce and his brother Claude probably created the world's first internal combustion engine which they called Pyreolophore. The first fullscale, working steam powered tricycle was built by:
A
Verbiest
B
Cugnot
C
Trevithick
D
Niepce

Consider the following statements and choose the correct answer:
1. A direct proportionality exists between vapour pressure and the concentration of water vapour in the atmosphere
2. Relative humidity is an expression of the ratio of the actual vapour pressure of the atmosphere when saturated at the same temperature
3. A rise or fall in temperature with no change in vapour pressure will cause a drop or rise, respectively, in relative humidity
4. A rise or fall in vapour pressure with no change in temperature will be accompanied by a rise or fall, respectively, in relative humidity
A
1, 2, 3 and 4 are true
B
Only 3 and 4 are true
C
Only 2 and 4 are true
D
Only 1, 2 and 3 are true
In a surface condenser, the water flowing through a series of tubes at the rate of 200 kg/hr is heated from 15 degree Celsius to 75 degree Celsius. The steam condenses on the outside surface of tubes at atmospheric pressure and the overall heat transfer coefficient is estimated at 860 k J/m2 hr degree. Find the effectiveness of the heat exchanger. At the condensing pressure, stream has a saturation temperature 0f 100 degree Celsius and the latent heat of vaporization is 2160 k J/kg. Further, the steam is initially just saturated and the condensate leaves the exchanger without sub-cooling i.e. only latent heat of condensing steam is transferred to the water. Take specific heat of water as 4 k J/kg K
