Question

Match the List-I with List-II:

• A. (iv), (ii), (iii), (i)
• B. (ii), (iii), (i), (iv)
• C. (ii), (i), (iv), (iii)
• D. (i), (iv), (iii), (ii)

Hint:

Recognize components by their profile: enclosed = bush, flat = gasket, flange = mounted hub, open = split bush.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

To solve this question, we analyze the shapes shown in List-I and identify which mechanical components they represent based on their sectional geometry.
(1) shows a long cylindrical view with an inner bore—it resembles a component that allows the insertion of another rotating part. This matches the bush of a BUSH BEARING (ii). It is completely enclosed and thus ideal for shaft mounting.
(2) is a flat, thin component with a circular outer edge, commonly used to fill the gap between two surfaces. This is characteristic of a Gasket (iii). Gaskets are typically used to prevent leakage and ensure sealing.
(3) has a projecting hollow cylindrical shape mounted to a circular plate with holes. This configuration is a classic representation of a Flange (i) used in pipe and shaft assemblies for joining components.
(4) is a half-cylinder or a semi-circular section, open on one side. This design is consistent with a Bush of an OPEN BEARING (iv) which is typically split for easy installation and maintenance.
Thus, the correct matching is:
(1) → (ii), (2) → (iii), (3) → (i), (4) → (iv)
