A Senior Manager was asked 3mo ago
Q. What is the difference between specification limits and control limits?
Ans. 

Specification limits define acceptable product performance, while control limits monitor process stability.

  • Specification limits are set by customer requirements or industry standards, e.g., a product must be between 10-20 mm.

  • Control limits are statistical boundaries derived from process data, e.g., a control chart may show limits at 12-18 mm.

  • Specification limits indicate what is acceptable; control limits indicate...

A Senior Manager was asked 3mo ago
Q. What are Cp and Cpk, and how are they used in process capability analysis?
Ans. 

Cp and Cpk are metrics used to assess process capability and performance in manufacturing and quality control.

  • Cp (Process Capability) measures the potential capability of a process by comparing the width of the process spread to the width of the specification limits.

  • Cpk (Process Capability Index) measures how centered the process is within the specification limits, taking into account the mean and variability.

  • A Cp...

A Safety Manager was asked 3mo ago
Q. What are the risks in a confined space, and what gases are dangerous there?
Ans. 

Confined spaces pose risks due to limited ventilation, leading to hazardous gas accumulation and potential health hazards.

  • Oxygen deficiency: Levels below 19.5% can cause unconsciousness or death.

  • Toxic gases: Carbon monoxide (CO) can be lethal even in small amounts.

  • Flammable gases: Methane can lead to explosions in confined spaces.

  • Asphyxiants: Nitrogen can displace oxygen, leading to suffocation.

  • Corrosive gases: Hy...

Q. What is the difference between an on-site emergency plan and an emergency evacuation plan?
Ans. 

On-site emergency plans address immediate threats, while evacuation plans focus on safe exit procedures during emergencies.

  • On-site emergency plans include procedures for various emergencies like fires, chemical spills, or medical emergencies.

  • Emergency evacuation plans specifically outline the routes and methods for safely evacuating personnel from a building.

  • For example, an on-site emergency plan may include first...

An Intern was asked 9mo ago
Q. What is entropy?
Ans. 

Entropy is a measure of disorder or randomness in a system.

  • Entropy increases as the system becomes more disordered.

  • It is a thermodynamic quantity that describes the amount of energy in a physical system that is not available to do work.

  • Entropy can also be thought of as a measure of the number of possible arrangements of a system.

  • For example, a messy room has higher entropy than a clean room because there are more ...

An Intern was asked 9mo ago
Q. What are the three laws of thermodynamics?
Ans. 

The three laws of thermodynamics are fundamental principles in the study of energy and heat transfer.

  • First Law: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted. For example, when a cup of hot coffee cools down, the energy is transferred to the surrounding air.

  • Second Law: Heat naturally flows from hot to cold objects, and entropy (disorder) tends to increase over time. For example, an ice cube ...

An Electrician was asked 11mo ago
Q. The flow of free electrons in a conductor is called current.
Ans. 

Yes, the flow of free electrons in a conductor is called current.

  • Current is the flow of electric charge through a conductor.

  • In a conductor, such as a wire, free electrons move in response to an electric field, creating current.

  • The unit of current is the ampere (A).

  • Examples of conductors include metals like copper and aluminum.

An Electrician was asked 11mo ago
Q. What is current?
Ans. 

Current is the flow of electric charge, measured in amperes, and is essential for powering electrical devices.

  • Current is defined as the rate of flow of electric charge.

  • Measured in amperes (A), where 1 ampere equals 1 coulomb of charge per second.

  • There are two types of current: direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC).

  • DC flows in one direction, like in batteries, while AC changes direction periodically, as ...

An Electrician was asked 11mo ago
Q. What is a transformer?
Ans. 

A transformer is an electrical device that transfers electrical energy between circuits through electromagnetic induction.

  • Transforms voltage levels: Steps up or steps down voltage as needed.

  • Consists of primary and secondary coils: The primary coil receives input voltage, while the secondary delivers output voltage.

  • Used in power distribution: Essential for transmitting electricity over long distances.

  • Example: A ste...

A Mechanical Engineer was asked
Q. What is forging?
Ans. 

Forgings are metal components that are shaped by compressive forces, typically through hammering or pressing.

  • Forgings are typically stronger and more reliable than castings or machined parts.

  • Common forging processes include open-die forging, closed-die forging, and ring rolling.

  • Examples of forged components include crankshafts, connecting rods, and gears.

  • Forgings are often used in industries such as automotive, ae...

Why are women still asked such personal questions in interview?
I recently went for an interview… and honestly, m still trying to process what just happened. Instead of being asked about my skills, experience, or how I could add value to the company… the questions took a totally unexpected turn. The interviewer started asking things like When are you getting married? Are you engaged? And m sure, if I had said I was married, the next question would’ve been How long have you been married? What does my personal life have to do with the job m applying for? This is where I felt the gender discrimination hit hard. These types of questions are so casually thrown at women during interviews but are they ever asked to men? No one asks male candidates if they’re planning a wedding or how old their kids are. So why is it okay to ask women? Can we please stop normalising this kind of behaviour in interviews? Our careers shouldn’t be judged by our relationship status. Period.
