Q. Which of the following welding process in which heat is produced for welding by a chemical reaction?

  • (A) resisting welding
  • (B) thermit welding
  • (C) forge welding
  • (D) gas welding
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (B) thermit welding

Explanation: the thermite process is a chemical reaction in which a metal oxide (preferably molten) is displaced by another molten metal which is more reactive than the metal in the metal oxide, releasing a lot of heat. example:

Q. The maximum diameter of electrodes being used in submerged arc welding?

  • (A) 30 mm
  • (B) 20 mm
  • (C) 15 mm
  • (D) 10 mm
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (D) 10 mm

Explanation: a consumable electrode can be used by the submerged arc welding which is a loop of bare round wire with 1.5 mm to 10 mm diameter. it can be fed routinely throughout the welding gun, and the submerged arc welding electrode composition depends on the welded material.

Q. Which of the following gases are used in Tungsten inert gas welding?

  • (A) helium and neon
  • (B) hydrogen and oxygen
  • (C) argon and helium
  • (D) carbon dioxide and hydrogen
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (C) argon and helium

Explanation: in the tig welding process the arc is formed between a pointed tungsten electrode and the workpiece in an inert atmosphere of argon or helium.

Q. Which of the following materials necessitates preheating in welding?

  • (A) copper
  • (B) aluminium
  • (C) cast iron
  • (D) stainless steel
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (C) cast iron

Explanation: as the weldability of cast iron usually decreases as the amount of free carbon in cast iron increases, so it is preheated to a dull red and then welded.

Q. Which of the following is also called “gas welding”?

  • (A) oxy fuel gas welding
  • (B) metallic welding
  • (C) arc welding
  • (D) fuel gas welding
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (A) oxy fuel gas welding

Explanation: gas welding is also known as oxy fuel gas welding. in gas welding, fuel gases are used to generate high amount of heat and melt the metal.

Q. How many types of flames are there in welding?

  • (A) 1
  • (B) 2
  • (C) 3
  • (D) 4
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (C) 3

Explanation: there are three basic flame types: neutral (balanced), excess acetylene (carburizing), and excess oxygen (oxidizing) as shown below.

Q. In which of the following type of flame, oxygen is in excess proportion with acetylene?

  • (A) neutral flame
  • (B) oxidizing flame
  • (C) carburizing flame
  • (D) both oxidizing flame and carburizing flame
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (B) oxidizing flame

Explanation: oxidizing welding flames are produced when slightly more than one volume of oxygen is mixed with one volume of acetylene. oxidizing welding flames are commonly used to weld zinc, copper, manganese steel, cast iron, etc.

Q. In which of the following type of flame, oxygen is deficient in proportion with acetylene?

  • (A) neutral flame
  • (B) oxidizing flame
  • (C) carburizing flame
  • (D) both oxidizing flame and carburizing flame
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (C) carburizing flame

Explanation: the carburizing flame has excess acetylene then oxygen. reducing flame is used for the welding of low carbon and alloy steel.

Q. For brazing, soldering and flame hardening which of the following flame is used?

  • (A) neutral flame
  • (B) oxidizing flame
  • (C) carburizing flame
  • (D) both oxidizing flame and carburizing flame
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (C) carburizing flame

Explanation: for brazing, soldering and flame hardening carburizing flame is used.

Q. The inner cone of the flame in welding has the following nature?

  • (A) highest temperature
  • (B) coldest temperature
  • (C) moderate temperature
  • (D) uncertain
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (A) highest temperature

Explanation: the inner cone of the flame has the highest temperature (3500°c). the outer flame has the lowest temperature.
