Lessons for Engineers

Eye opening knowledge for Engineers and students of Science.
Well I suppose with the fast proliferation of Engineering Colleges and the AICTE granting permission for money, these are the engineers we can expect.

Interviewer: Why is a thicker conductor necessary to carry a current in A.C as compared to D.C. ? Candidate : An AC current goes up and down (drawing a sinusoid) and requires more space inside the wire, so the wire has to be thicker.

************ ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* *****

External (to student) : "Why does a capacitor block DC but allow AC To pass through ? Student: See, a capacitor is like this ---| |--- , OK. DC comes straight, like this ----------, and the capacitor stops it. But AC, goes UP, DOWN, UP DOWN and jumps right over the capacitor!" ------------ ------- good one : - )

************ ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* ****** Interviewer: How will you tell if that wall outlet carries AC or DC? Candidate : I will put my finger in. If it is pushed away, it is AC. If it gets stuck, it was DC.

************ ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* ****** Interviewer: How will you reverse direction of an Induction motor? Candidate : I will remove the four bolts at the x-ud, turn the motor around, and put back the bolts.

************ ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* ****** Examiner: "What is a step-up transformer? " Student : "A transformer that is put on top of electric poles." Examiner (smiling): "And then what is a step-down transformer? " Student (hesitantly):"Uh - A transformer that is put in the x-udment or in a pit?" Examiner (pouncing): "Then what do you call a transformer that is installed on the ground?"
( Student knows he is caught-can't answer) Examiner (impatiently) : "Well?" Student (triumphantly) : "A stepless transformer, sir!"

************ ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* ********* *****

Examiner: Do you know Ohm's Law??? Student : Sure Sir... Examiner: Well...Narrate me... Student: Which one Sir?? 1st or 2nd Law??? Examiner (getting shocked):How many Ohm's Law do you know??? Student (with confidence):Well sir...there are two Ohm's Laws Every one knows... Examiner (Smiling): Ok. Then tell me the 2nd one. Student (thinking and thinking): Sir I can't remember the entire law exactly...But the last portion of the law I can remember. Examiner: Ok. You tell me the last portion only. Student: Well sir. The last portion of the law tells like "This is called Ohm's Law" !!!!!!

8 semesters

80GB syllabus

80MB we study

80KB we remember

80 Bytes we answer

BINARY marks we get,

Degree finally Then granted is BE That is

Brain Empty (B.E)
