Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge
Condone most nearly means:
excuse
To treat as acceptable.
Word Knowledge
Jennifer's outspoken criticism of the meal disoncerted the waiter.
unnerve
To throw into confusion.
Mechanical Comprehension

Which of the following surfaces would have the lowest coefficient of friction?

ice

Coefficient of friction (μ) represents how much two materials resist sliding across each other.  Smooth surfaces like ice have low coefficients of friction while rough surfaces like concrete have high μ.

Math Knowledge
4\( \sqrt{2} \)

If the area of this square is 16, what is the length of one of the diagonals?

4\( \sqrt{2} \)

To find the diagonal we need to know the length of one of the square's sides. We know the area and the area of a square is the length of one side squared:

a = s2

so the length of one side of the square is:

s = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{16} \) = 4

The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a triangle with a right angle as the sum of the squares of the other two sides:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 42 + 42
c2 = 32
c = \( \sqrt{32} \) = \( \sqrt{16 x 2} \) = \( \sqrt{16} \) \( \sqrt{2} \)
c = 4\( \sqrt{2} \)

Word Knowledge
Mandate most nearly means:
command
An official order or commission to do something.
Mechanical Comprehension
3 What is the mechanical advantage of this inclined plane if the length of the ramp is 24 ft. and the height of the green box is 8 ft.?
3

The mechanical advantage (MA) of an inclined plane is the effort distance divided by the resistance distance. In this case, the effort distance is the length of the ramp and the resistance distance is the height of the green box:

MA = \( \frac{d_e}{d_r} \) = \( \frac{24 ft.}{8 ft.} \) = 3

Shop Information

The __________ is an initial shallow saw cut made as a guide to prevent the saw from slipping sideways on subsequent more powerful cuts.

kerf

When you start sawing by creating a kerf it will help prevent the saw from slipping sideways when you begin the power strokes that do most of the cutting.

Electronics Information

The farad is a unit of measurement for:

capacitance

Capacitors store electricity and are used in circuits as temporary batteries. Capacitors are charged by DC current (AC current passes through a capacitor) and that stored charge can later be dissipated into the circuit as needed. Capacitors are often used to maintain power within a system when it is disconnected from its primary power source or to smooth out or filter voltage within a circuit.

Mechanical Comprehension

Which class of lever is used to increase force on an object in the same direction as the force is applied?

second

A second-class lever is used to increase force on an object in the same direction as the force is applied. This lever requires a smaller force to lift a larger load but the force must be applied over a greater distance. The fulcrum is placed at one end of the lever and mechanical advantage increases as the object being lifted is moved closer to the fulcrum or the length of the lever is increased. An example of a second-class lever is a wheelbarrow.

Word Knowledge
The extenuating circumstance of Calvin's illness caused the teacher to excuse his lateness.
mitigating
Partially excusing.
