Nptel Welding Application Technology Week 2: Assignment 2 Solution




 Total resistance in welding is composed of: (i) Resistance of electrode (ii) Contact resistance between electrode and workpiece (iii) Contact resistance between two workpiece plates (iv) Resistance of workpiece

 (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)

 (ii), (iii) and (iv)

 (ii) and (iv)

 (i)


The material used for making the two electrodes of resistance welding are mainly

 Copper

 Aluminum

 Steel

 Nickel


If 20 amperes of current is flowing in a wire for 1 minute of time having a resistance of 1000 ohm. Then the amount of heat generated in resistance welding will be (in kilo joules) equal to

 24000

 240000

 24000000

 2400


In resistance spot welding process the Time between pressure application and weld is called

 Hold Time

 Off Time

 Squeeze Time

 Weld Time


Which group of electrodes are best suitable for high temperatures during resistance spot welding?

 Group A, Class I, II, III, IV, and V copper alloys

 Group B, Class 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 refractory alloys

 Group A or Group B electrodes

 Both Group A and Group B electrodes


Which of the following is true for seam welding?

 The electrodes are often disc shaped

 It is a resistance welding

 All of the above


In which friction welding (FW) process the rotational speed remains constant until the brake is applied?

 Continuous drive

 Inertia drive

 Both (a) and (b)

 Neither (a) and (b)


Which of the following formula generally used for low carbon steel?

 Electrode tip diameter = 0.40’’ + 8t, t = thickness in inches

 Electrode tip diameter = 0.30’’ + 6t, t = thickness in inches

 Electrode tip diameter = 0.10’’ + 2t, t = thickness in inches

 Electrode tip diameter = 0.20’’ + 4t, t = thickness in inches
