10.1 Casting is a process in which molten metal flows into a mold where it solidifies in the shape of the mold cavity; the term casting also applies to the part that is made by this process: (a) true or (b) false?

c,d

10.10 Turbulence during pouring of the molten metal is undesirable for which of the following reasons (two best answers): (a) it causes discoloration of the mold surfaces, (b) it dissolves the binder used to hold together the sand mold, (c) it increases erosion of the mold surfaces, (d) it increases the formation of metallic oxides that can become entrapped during solidification, (e) it increases the mold filling time, and (f) it increases total solidification time?

a,c

10.11 Two important relationships that determine the flow of molten metal in casting are which of the following (two correct answers): (a) Bernoulli's theorem, (b) Chvorinov's rule, (c) continuity law, (d) flow curve, (e) Hooke's law, or (f) Ohm's law?

a

d

10.13 During solidification of an alloy when a mixture of solid and liquid metals is present, the solid liquid mixture is referred to as which one of the following: (a) eutectic composition, (b) ingot segregation, (c) liquidus, (d) mushy zone, or (e) solidus?

b

10.14 The empirical relationship that determines total solidification time in casting is known as which one of the following: (a) Bernoulli's theorem, (b) Chvorinov's rule, (c) continuity law, (d) flow curve, (e) Hooke's law, or (f) Ohm's law?

10.15 According to the empirical relationship in the previous question, total solidification time is proportional to which one of the following quantities: (a) (A/V)n, (b) Hf, (c) Tm, (d) V, (e) V/A, or (f) (V/A)2; where A = surface area of casting, Hf = heat of fusion, Tm = melting temperature, and V = volume of casting?

c

10.16 Solidification shrinkage in casting is defined as which one of the following: (a) liquid contraction during cooling prior to solidification, (b) liquid contraction during cooling and solidification, (c) contraction during the phase change from liquid to solid, or (d) thermal contraction of the solidified casting during cooling to room temperature.?

a

10.17 Metal inserts in the walls of a sand mold cavity designed to remove heat from the molten metal more rapidly than the surrounding sand are called which one of the following: (a) external chills, (b) internal chills, (c) pipes, or (d) sprues?

c,d,e

10.18 A riser in casting is described by which of the following (three correct answers): (a) an insert in the casting that inhibits buoyancy of the core, (b) gating system in which the sprue feeds directly into the cavity, (c) metal that is not part of the casting, (d) source of molten metal to feed the casting and compensate for shrinkage during solidification, and (e) waste metal that is usually recycled?

c

10.19 In a sand-casting mold, the V/A ratio of the riser should be (a) equal to, (b) greater than, or (c) smaller than the V/A ratio of the casting itself?

b

10.2 A factory that performs casting processes is called which of the following (one best answer): (a) casting plant, (b) foundry, (c) ingot-making plant, (d) metal working plant, or (e) molding plant?

a,c

10.20 Which of the following riser types are completely enclosed within the sand mold and connected to the main cavity by a channel to feed the molten metal (two correct answers): (a) blind riser, (b) open riser, (c) side riser, and (d) top riser?

a

10.3 Sand casting is which of the following types of casting process: (a) expendable mold or (b) permanent mold?

a

10.4 The upper half of a sand-casting mold is called which one of the following: (a) cope, (b) drag, (c) flask, or (d) pattern?

b

10.5 In casting, a flask is which one of the following: (a) beverage bottle for workers who perform casting, (b) box which holds the cope and drag, (c) container for holding liquid metal, or (d) metal which extrudes between the mold halves?

a

10.6 The pattern that determines the geometry of the casting in expendable mold processes is usually made (a) oversized, (b) the same size, or (c) undersized relative to the dimensions of the casting?

a

10.7 In casting processes, a runner is which one of the following: (a) channel in the mold leading from the downsprue to the main mold cavity, (b) worker who moves the molten metal to the mold, or (c) vertical channel into which molten metal is poured into the mold?

a
