Mechanical Operations MCQ’s – Size Reduction
1 - Question
According to Rittingers law, work required is proportional to _________
a) Energy Consumed
b) Surface area created
c) Final Volume
d) Initial feed
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: The Rittingers law states that “The work required in crushing is directly proportional to the new surface area created”.
2 - Question

a) Independent of feed material
b) Independent of size of feed and product
c) Independent of energy consumed
d) Independent of area
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: Crushing efficiency is constant and for a given machine and feed material, is independent of size of feed and product.
3 - Question
What does the below equation represent?
a) Arrhenius Law
b) Kick’s Law
c) Bond Law
d) Rittingers Law
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The formula above represents the Rittingers law, where P is the power required, m is the mass and Kf is the constant.
4 - Question
Rittingers law is applicable only when _____
a) New particles are created
b) New surface area is created
c) Energy is created
d) Energy is absorbed
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: Rittingers law applies well where new surface area is created and hold good for fine grinding where increase is surface area per unit mass is large.
5 - Question

a) Cumulative analysis
b) Frequency analysis
c) Stress analysis
d) Screen analysis
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: Kick proposed another law, based on the stress analysis of plastic deformation within the elastic limits.
6 - Question
According to Kick, the work required for crushing a mass of material is ____
a) Zero
b) Constant
c) Unity
d) Infinite
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: The kick’s law states that the work required for crushing a mass of material is constant for the same reduction ratio.
7 - Question
The ratio of initial particle size to final particle size is defined as _____
a) Reduction ratio
b) Kick’s ratio
c) Rittingers ratio
d) Bond’s ratio
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: The reduction ratio for a crusher is defined as the ratio of feed opening to the discharge opening i.e. Dsa/Dab.
8 - Question

a) Arrhenius Law
b) Kick’s Law
c) Bond Law
d) Rittingers Law
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: The formula above represents the Kick’s law, where P is the power required, m is the mass and Dsa/Dab is the reduction ratio and Kk is the kick’s constant.
9 - Question
Kick’s law holds well for ____
a) Fine crushing
b) Simple crushing
c) Full crushing
d) Coarse crushing
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: Kick’s law holds good for coarse crushing and amount of surface produced is less.
10 - Question
The below equation is in the form of____
a) Experimental relation
b) Empirical relation
c) Generalized relation
d) Actual relation
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The generalized relation is in the form of the above equation that is the form of the differential equation, where the value of ‘n’ varies.
