Question - 1

CPM is

  • A time oriented technique
  • B activity oriented technique
  • C event oriented technique
  • D Both (b) and (c)

Question - 2

PERT is

  • A event oriented
  • B activity oriented
  • C cost oriented
  • D Both (a) and (b)

Question - 3

Critical activities are those for which

  • A float = + 1
  • B float = 0
  • C float < 1
  • D float > 1

Question - 4

A dummy activity

  • A does not require any time
  • B is represented by a dotted line
  • C is artificially introduced
  • D All of the above

Question - 5

The critical path of a network represents

  • A minimum time required for completion of project
  • B maximum time required for completion of project
  • C minimum cost required for completion of project
  • D maximum cost required or completion of project

Question - 6

One time estimate is

  • A PERT
  • B CPM
  • C Both (a) and (b)
  • D None of these

Question - 7

Which of the following is not correct?

  • A The critical path of a project network represents the minimum time needed to complete the project
  • B Critical path is the longest path in a project network
  • C A delay in the completion of critical activities need not cause a delay in the completion of the whole project
  • D The sum of the variances of the critical activity times gives the variance of the overall project completion time

Question - 8

If an activity has zero slack, it implies that

  • A it is a dummy activity
  • B it lies on the critical path
  • C there are more than one critical paths
  • D All of the above

Question - 9

An activity in the network

  • A represents a task which has a definite beginning and a definite end
  • B cannot start unless all its immediate procedures are completed
  • C have float zero, if it is critical, otherwise total float as positive in case of non-critical activity
  • D All of the above

Question - 10

The probability of obtaining a total of 6 in a single throw to two dice

  • A 5/36
  • B 9/36
  • C 1/13
  • D 7/13
