Sample Maharashtra HSC Multi-Skill General Engineering (NSQF) Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Maharashtra HSC Multi-Skill General Engineering (NSQF) exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1The primary purpose of personal protective equipment (PPE) in a workshop is to:
A.Replace all safe work procedures
B.Reduce the risk of injury from residual hazards
C.Increase production speed
D.Eliminate the need for machine guards
Explanation: PPE is the last line of defence: it reduces injury risk when hazards cannot be fully engineered out, and it does not replace safe procedures or guards.
2Safety goggles or a face shield should be worn when:
A.Only writing in the practical journal
B.Grinding, chipping, or any operation that produces flying particles
C.Walking in a clean corridor with no tools
D.Discussing a job plan away from machines
Explanation: Eye protection is required whenever flying chips, sparks, dust, or chemical splash risk exists (grinding, chipping, drilling hard materials, etc.).
3A Class B fire extinguisher is primarily intended for fires involving:
A.Ordinary wood and paper only
B.Flammable liquids such as oil, grease, or petrol
C.Energised electrical equipment only
D.Cooking oils in deep fryers only (Class K specialty)
Explanation: Class B extinguishers are for flammable liquid fires (oils, petrol, paints). Class A is ordinary combustibles; electrical fires need non-conductive agents.
4Before using any machine in the workshop, a student should first:
A.Remove all guards to see the cutter better
B.Check that guards are in place and the area is clear of hazards
C.Wear loose clothing for comfort
D.Start the machine at full speed without inspection
Explanation: Pre-use checks include guards fitted, emergency stop accessible, work area clear, and correct PPE — never remove guards for convenience.
5Which practice best reduces the risk of slips and trips in a multi-skill workshop?
A.Leaving oil spills for the next shift
B.Keeping floors clean and dry; cleaning spills immediately
C.Storing offcuts in walkways for easy access
D.Running electrical cables across main aisles permanently
Explanation: Immediate spill cleanup and clear walkways are basic housekeeping that prevent slips, trips, and falls — a major workshop injury source.
6If a co-worker receives a minor cut that is bleeding, the first-aid priority among these is to:
A.Apply direct pressure with a clean dressing and elevate if appropriate
B.Ignore it until the job is finished
C.Wash the wound with concentrated acid
D.Apply grease from the lathe as a dressing
Explanation: For minor bleeding: protect yourself, apply clean direct pressure, elevate when appropriate, and seek further help if bleeding continues.
7The safest action if you smell burning insulation near a power tool is to:
A.Continue until the job is done
B.Switch off power, unplug if safe, and report the fault
C.Pour water on the tool while it is still plugged in
D.Cover the smell with perfume
Explanation: Burning insulation indicates electrical fault risk. De-energise safely, do not use water on live equipment, isolate, and report for repair.
8Why should long hair be tied back and jewellery removed near rotating machines?
A.Only for appearance standards
B.To prevent entanglement and serious injury
C.Because machines run slower with jewellery
D.Hair and jewellery improve tool grip
Explanation: Long hair, loose clothing, and rings/chains can catch on rotating spindles and pull the operator into the machine.
9A Material Safety / Safety Data Sheet (SDS) is mainly used to:
A.Advertise products to customers
B.Provide hazard, handling, first-aid, and storage information for a chemical
C.Replace all workshop training
D.List only the product price
Explanation: SDS (formerly MSDS) documents chemical hazards, PPE, first aid, spill response, and storage — essential before using solvents, cleaners, or fluxes.
10Which statement about emergency exits in a workshop is correct?
A.They may be blocked by stock if space is tight
B.They must remain clear, unlocked for egress, and well marked
C.Only supervisors need to know exit locations
D.Exits should be painted the same colour as walls to hide them
Explanation: Emergency exits and routes must stay unobstructed, usable, and clearly marked so everyone can evacuate quickly.
