How is your prep and do you believe that scaling vector drawing will come?

How did you find the exam?

me

I think im pretty ready.. and yeah most likely. How about you?

I am ready too. Wish you luck and btw don't forget to remember the answers.

Normally, I save the numerical answers in the variables of the calculator and whatever the theory questions I try my best to remember them!

So that we can share the answers after the exam to compare

Ill make sure to do so

Where r u frm? Like what time will you be giving the exam?

9.00 AM

Whats your time zone in GMT?
I am GMT+5 so the exam starts 10am for me.

How was your exam?

Hi there! Mine was good how was yours? Do you remember any answers? Like do you remember the answer to that upwards force acting on the balloon in question 14?

For Questions 11-19, I remember the numerical answers to their parts and below are the ones I remember!

So here are the answers I remember:

Q.11 - Power output was 86.4kW

Q.12 - Young Modulus was 419MPa hence the material couldn't take the force of 150N

Q.13 - Distance was 0.3m (the moments question relating to the distance from pivot G to center of wheel)

Q.14 - Upwards force on the balloon was 0.498N

Q.15 - Answer to one of the parts was 2.72 (forgot what exactly the question was, if someone remembers, do let me know.)

Q.17 - Something like 5.65 x 10^-3 (again forgot what the question was about)

Q.18 - For work done against air resistance, the answer was 19,009J

Lastly maybe I guess for another part of Q.18 or maybe Q.19 one of the answers was 31,882 (again forgot the exact question)

Share your answers too. If someone recalls the theory answers, do share that too.

For Q 12. It was the breaking stress not the yoings modulus
