ANSWER-GTAW
Which shielding gas does GMAW use for spray transfer - CORRECT ANSWER-
95% Argon and 5% CO2
,The deposition rate of SMAW electrodes is increased by including - CORRECT
ANSWER-Iron Power
Electrode in Flux cored are welding is - CORRECT ANSWER-Tubular wire
containing flux or other ingredients
What welding process is not used in overhead position - CORRECT ANSWER-
SAW (Submerged Arc Welding
SAW Fluxes that significantly influence the composition of the weld metal through
slag/metal reactions are called - CORRECT ANSWER-are classified in
conjunction with welding wire forming a flux designation
A welding arc consists of a - CORRECT ANSWER-high current and low voltage
A consumable electrode is: - CORRECT ANSWER-AN electrode which melts and
provides metal to fill the joint
,The weld heat affected zone is: - CORRECT ANSWER-the portion of the base
metal adjacent to the weld metal whose properties have been changed due to the
heat of welding
When an arc is formed between two electrodes - CORRECT ANSWER-
electricity flows from negative cathode to positive anode
The magnetic pinch force helps in the process of the detaching the molten metal
drops from the electrode tip. The magnetic force - CORRECT ANSWER-
increases as the square of the current causing smaller and smaller droplets to be
detached

ANSWER-Vertical up
, Explosion welding - CORRECT ANSWER-is solid state process in which
coalescence is produced through high speed impacting of two or more materials
by controlled detonation
A typical application for thermite welding is - CORRECT ANSWER-joining of
rails
Welding without filler metal with GTAW process is referred to as - CORRECT
ANSWER-autogenous welding
A typical weld flaw associated with GTAW process is - CORRECT ANSWER-
porosity
SMAW power sources typically have a volt-ampere curve that is - CORRECT
ANSWER-drooping
