Sample Practice Test Questions
If a rectangle is twice as long as it is wide and has a perimeter of 12 meters, what is the area of the rectangle?
The area of a rectangle is width (w) x height (h). In this problem we know that the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide so h = 2w. The perimeter of a rectangle is 2w + 2h and we know that the perimeter of this rectangle is 12 meters so the equation becomes: 2w + 2h = 12.
Putting these two equations together and solving for width (w):
2w + 2h = 12
w + h = \( \frac{12}{2} \)
w + h = 6
w = 6 - h
From the question we know that h = 2w so substituting 2w for h gives us:
w = 6 - 2w
3w = 6
w = \( \frac{6}{3} \)
w = 2
Since h = 2w that makes h = (2 x 2) = 4 and the area = h x w = 2 x 4 = 8 m2
Which of blood component carries oxygen?
red blood cells
Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.
If BD = 22 and AD = 29, AB = ?
The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:
AD = AB + BD
Solving for AB:AB = AD - BDThe __________ nervous system regulates involuntary activity in the heart, stomach, and intestines.
autonomic
Part of the peripheral nervous system, the autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary activity in the heart, stomach, and intestines.
Which of the following statements about a capacitor is false?
it is safe to touch a capacitor with your hands as long as it is small
The purpose of a capacitor is to retain electric charge and it will do so even after its input voltage is removed. After the input voltage is removed, the capacitor will slowly discharge but, depending on the size and characteristics of the capacitor, discharging could take from a few minutes to a few years. So, it's never safe to touch a capacitor with your hands and you should make sure to discharge any capacitors in a circuit before working on it using an appropriately high-wattage resistor or a capacitor discharge tool.
Convert 5C° to F°.
41
To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(5) + 32\)
\(F° = {45 \over 5} + 32\)
\(F° = 9 + 32 = 41\)
In the heart, blood flows from the right __________ to the lungs then back to the heart via the left __________.
ventricle, atrium
The two largest veins in the body, the venae cavae, pass blood to the right ventricle which pumps the blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. Blood picks up oxygen in the lungs and returns it to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein.
