Questions in: Engineering

Right Answer:
Yesterday, I started my day by reviewing project plans and specifications. I then attended a team meeting to discuss progress and any challenges we were facing. After that, I visited the job site to oversee the installation of electrical systems, ensuring everything was up to code. I also collaborated with other engineers and contractors to resolve any issues. In the evening, I documented the day's work and planned tasks for the next day.

Right Answer:
Failure is the inability to meet specified requirements or expectations in a project or task, resulting in an unsatisfactory outcome.

Right Answer:
To calculate the size of a safety valve, use the formula:

[
A = frac{Q}{C_d cdot sqrt{2 cdot Delta P / rho}}
]

Where:
- ( A ) = required valve area (in square inches or square centimeters)
- ( Q ) = flow rate (in GPM or L/min)
- ( C_d ) = discharge coefficient (typically between 0.6 and 0.9)
- ( Delta P ) = pressure drop across the valve (in psi or bar)
- ( rho ) = density of the fluid (in lb/ft³ or kg/m³)

Ensure to convert units appropriately and consider the specific application and fluid properties for accurate results.

Right Answer:
SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound.

Right Answer:
Extras are provided at the top and bottom of a beam or slab to accommodate bending moments and shear forces. The top reinforcement handles tension in the upper part due to bending, while the bottom reinforcement deals with tension in the lower part. This ensures structural integrity and prevents cracking.

Right Answer:
The engineering properties of soil refer to the characteristics that affect its behavior under load and its suitability for construction.

List of engineering properties of soil:
1. Shear strength
2. Compressibility
3. Permeability
4. Plasticity
5. Density
6. Consolidation
7. Swell potential
8. Atterberg limits
9. Compaction characteristics
10. Soil classification (e.g., grain size distribution)

Right Answer:
In my job as a piping draughtsman, my activities include creating detailed piping drawings, interpreting design specifications, collaborating with engineers, ensuring compliance with industry standards, and revising drawings based on feedback.

Right Answer:
You can use the `split` command:

```bash
split -l 1000 phonenos
```

Right Answer:
d. at 15 minutes after every hour every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday

Right Answer:
When CloseHandle(handle) is called, it closes the specified handle and releases the resources associated with it. If the handle is a valid object, it will be marked for deletion, and if it is the last reference to that object, the system will clean up the associated resources.

Right Answer:
d. The files to be backed up have not been specified.

Right Answer:
a. at 5:00 wed usrs

Right Answer:
c. The file cat would be pasted after the file dog.

Right Answer:
In a child process, handles are inherited from the parent process by default. However, the child process can also create new handles or close inherited handles as needed. To control handle inheritance, the parent can set the `bInheritHandle` parameter to `FALSE` when creating a handle, preventing it from being inherited by the child process.

Right Answer:
Yes, forgetting to call CloseHandle will lead to a resource leak, but not a memory leak in the traditional sense. It will result in a handle leak, which can exhaust system resources over time.

Right Answer:
zcat

Right Answer:
c. at and crontab

Right Answer:
You can use the `fmt` command to even out the length of the lines in the text file.
