Let f(x) = mx + c
Now, f(x) = 29 at x = -2
And f(x) = 39 at x = 3
29 = -2m + c
39 = 3m + c
Solving above two equations, we get
m = 2 and c = 33
So f(x) = 2x + 33
Therefore, at x = 5, f(x) = 2 X 5 + 33 = 43
4. The Tamil version of ______ John Abraham-starrer Madras Cafe _____ cleared by
the Censor Board with no cuts last week, but the films distributors _______ no takers
among the exhibitors for a release in Tamil Nadu _____ this Friday
(A) Mr., was, found, on
(B) a, was, found, at
(C) the ,was, found, on
(D) a, being , find at
if X = 0
if X = 1
otherwise
Ans 0.24
Variance of X is given by
Var (X) = pX 2 - ( pX)2
X
Otherwise (n)
q = 0.4
1 q = 0.6
3. In a two-dimensional steady flow field, in a certain region of the x-y plane, the
velocity component in the x-direction is given by v x = x2 and the density varies as
= 1/x . Which of the following is a valid expression for the velocity component in
the y-direction, v y ?
(A) vy = x/y
(B) vy = x/y
(C) vy = xy
(D) vy = xy
Ans (C) vy = xy
For two-dimensional steady flow field,

n = x cos2 + y sin2
Here, x = 100 MPa (tensile); y = - 100 MPa (Compressive); = 450
On putting above values, we get
n = ( x + y )/2 = (100 100)/2 = 0
5. For the beam shown below, the value of the support moment M is _____ kN-m.
Ans 5
Splitting the beam at internal hinge and as the beam is symmetrical we get,
M BC + 10 x 1 = 0
M BC = -10 kNm (anticlockwise)
Now at B, M BA + M BC = 0
M BA = - M BC = 10 kNm (clockwise)
M AB = (2EI/3) (2 A + B ) + M FAB
M BA = (2EI/3) (2 B + A ) + M FBA
In this case, M FAB = M FBA = 0; A = 0
M = M AB = M BA /2 = 10/2 = 5 kNm (clockwise)
6. The composition of an air-entrained concrete is given below:
Water
: 184 kg/m3
: 368 kg/m3

Hence, P s = 1093.43
8. A non-homogeneous soil deposit consists of a silt layer sandwiched between a finesand layer at top and a clay layer below. Permeability of the silt layer is 10 times the
permeability of the clay layer and one-tenth of the permeability of the sand layer.
Thickness of the silt layer is 2 times the thickness of the sand layer and two-third of
the thickness of the clay layer. The ratio of equivalent horizontal and equivalent
vertical permeability of the deposit is ________.
Ans 10.96
