Thanks for the KVA and KW information.
1. 273.15K = 0 deg c
2. 39 is not exactly 39, nature doesn't have a preference for whole numbers..
Thanks for the KVA and KW information.
anyways the answer is 661.7 kts
(39 x root of (273+15)

+15*C is temp at mean sea level
and this is how we calculate and get the answer 661.8
anyways we even need no calculation for it as its a fixed value

What I meant was
0 deg C = 273.15 Kelvin
hence 15 deg c = 288.15 K
We didn't inherit the speed of sound from tablets buried in the pyramids of Egypt. People like me and you measured and calculated them.

You cant expect a paper more easier than the one we had.
Seriously if you can remove nooks in this paper than you can in any paper because I suppose your motive is to do the thing and just blindly post it on PPRuNe.
That was one of the easiest paper every1 could get. And you say that the way of asking question was not proper. Now should we give options like the game show, DO 50-50, take audience vote, or fone a friend..

Yes most testing organisations before standardizing language do take an audience poll.
If you ask a question, where do humans live
1. Earth
2. Third planet from the sun
3. Africa
4. None of the above
Thats a bad question. I don't care how easy one may find it.
If teaching is difficult creating an exam is even more difficult.

Ok .. some questions Im sure everyone would like an answer to ...
1. Why on earth did they not do an identity check !!???
How do they know if roll no. XXXX is indeed me and not someone else ?
2. What were those 2 passport sized photographs for anyway ?
3. Quick calculations. Roughly 2000 candidates totally. 5 papers.
Which means totally 10,000 answer sheets to be evaluated and totalled.
OMR sheets have not been used which means the counting and totalling would be done manually.
How many of you here are thinking that they are going to do the totalling of marks accurately ? or for that matter are they going to even bother going through 10,000+ answer sheets one by one and prepare an honest merit list ? (lets not kid ourselves into thinking that)
4. In all the exam centers, a few guys left the exam hall AFTER the lunch break. No points for guessing why.
(Hint : We had to sign an attendance sheet ONLY in the first session ie before the lunch break .. not after ! )

The formula for local speed of sound is
LSS = 38.94 √(273 + 15)
which is 660.83
LSS = 38.94 √(273 + 15)
which is 660.83
wells o the answer is 660.7
wow thats cool
because i wrote that answer but when i calculated i found out to be 661.8
@jimmygill
sorry buddy, my bad (but good for me)
the answer is 660.7
however the formula remains the same
but yes u were correct in those exact values which i did not knew

hey guys...
here's my view on the jet written.
1. Mostly very basic questions with a few exception. I was trying to study much deeper instead of paying attention to basic details and MESSED up.
2. Mental aptitude is a norm is most of the selection processes world wide.

hey buddy.....oh god this was easiest paper i have seen in a long long time......like in cricket we were expecting a fast bouncer and it turned out to be a slower ball which caught us.......i also studied deeper and irrelevant things instead of taking note of some basic things.....its all coz of our mindset before the exam....we were thinking too much n in panic messed up.....
n yess mental aptitude is fast catching on in india....have a few other friends from different fields n they also undergo mental apti test....anyways hopefull of a call buddy...??
2ndly those issues r rightly brought up by u but seriously speaking no knows y.....i m still hoping for a fair selection procedure.....reading the other posts is not giving me any confidence....
3rdly i have heard all sorts of things of the number of people getting shortlisted....ranging from 300-500 but not sure about....... any one having any CONFIRMED news???
N guys when do we expect the calls for the next round.....in other words when do we start checking our mailbox after every hour?????

Rightly pointed out Shanx.....
!!!!! Inspite of all this and hearing all sorts of things n reading the posts here I STILL AM HOPING for a FAIR & GENUINE selection process......maybe the desperation to get a job is making me build that if u may say FALSE hope
.......Plzz God Plzz let there be Sanity in the proceedings....!!!!

which is 660.83
LSS at ISA SL = 38.94 √(273.15 + 15) = 661.06 Knots
ICAO atmospheric tables have the value 661 Knots.
NASA in one of thier websites has 661.7 Knots
My question remains what were they trying to evaluate? And why were they adamant that the value will end in .7

RTR (P)
Guys, i am sry i dnt think wht i am saying is relevant in this thread. but i have got serious doubts and i hope u people would help me out. I have RTR (P) and is nearing its expiration date. I have to renew it. but i am still not sure if i need to appear for the sick WPC exams Part I or both Part I and Part II.
also i have heard that if one has 30 hours before 3years of applying for the RTR renewal then one can renew it directly by just paying up the fees listed. but still there is no assurance and as usual the WPC website doesnt open up half of the times.
I am really confused. Please help me out with the procedure.
Thanks a ton in advance.
