• The neatness and presentation of solutions will have 5% marks.
• Note that all parts of a question shall be answered together.
• Using short sentences and brevity in expressing the content is appreciated.
• Practice of numerical problems using calculator is very much essential instead of reading
merely.
The solutions are prepared with utmost care. In spite of this there may be some typographical
mistakes or improper sequence. The student is requested to inform us regarding errors, if any to
[email protected]. ACE Engineering Publications will be grateful in this regard.
The student is advised to solve the problems initially without referring to the solutions. The
student has to analyze the given question carefully, recall the relevant steps, equations and solve
the problem in detail. Then only verify the solution. The student is advised to have a standard text
book for ready reference to strengthen the related concepts, if necessary.
This book can also be used by the under graduate students and fresh teachers to enrich their
subject knowledge.
Thanks to all the professors who co-operated in the preparation of this booklet. Thanks to the
Academic Assistants and Data Entry section in the design of this booklet.
With best wishes to all those who wish to go through the following pages.
