• What is PS?
PS is Pferdestarke, the German unit for
Horsepower.
• Explain Otto cycle.
Otto cycle can be explained by a
pressure volume relationship diagram.
It shows the functioning cycle of a four
stroke engine. The cycle starts with an
intake stroke, closing the intake and
moving to the compression stroke,
starting of combustion, power stroke,
heat exchange stroke where heat is
rejected and the exhaust stroke. It was
designed by Nicolas Otto, a German
engineer.
• Define Torque.
Torque is defined as a force applied
to an object that results in rotational
motion.
• What is Ductile-Brittle Transition
Temperature?
It is the temperature below which
the tendency of a material to fracture
increases rather than forming. Below
this temperature the material loses its
ductility. It is also called Nil Ductility
