Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge
Brandish most nearly means:
flourish
To shake or wave menacingly.
Mechanical Comprehension

Two gears are connected and the larger gear drives the smaller gear. The speed of rotation will __________ and the torque will __________.

increase, decrease

Connected gears of different numbers of teeth are used together to change the rotational speed and torque of the input force. If the smaller gear drives the larger gear, the speed of rotation will be reduced and the torque will increase. If the larger gear drives the smaller gear, the speed of rotation will increase and the torque will be reduced.

Mechanical Comprehension

The advantage of using a third-class lever is that it increases:

the speed of the load

A third-class lever is used to increase distance traveled by an object in the same direction as the force applied. The fulcrum is at one end of the lever, the object at the other, and the force is applied between them. This lever does not impart a mechanical advantage as the effort force must be greater than the load but does impart extra speed to the load. Examples of third-class levers are shovels and tweezers.

Word Knowledge
Epitaph most nearly means:
inscription
Brief statement honoring a dead person.
General Science

Heat is always transferred from __________ to __________ environments.

warmer, cooler

Heat is always transferred from warmer to cooler environments and conduction is the simplest way this transfer can occur. It is accomplished through direct contact between materials and materials like metals that transfer heat efficiently are called conductors while those that conduct heat poorly, such as plastic, are called insulators.

General Science

Arteries carry __________ blood at __________ pressure.

oxygenated, high

Veins carry blood back to the heart from the body. While arteries are thick-walled because they carry oxygenated blood at high pressure, veins are comparatively thin-walled as they carry low-pressure deoxygenated blood. Like the heart, veins contain valves to prevent blood backflow.

Automotive Information

What's the name of the low-voltage winding in the ignition coil?

primary coil winding

The ignition coil is a high-voltage transformer made up of two coils of wire. The primary coil winding is the low-voltage winding and has relatively few turns of heavy wire. The secondary coil winding is the high-voltage winding that surrounds the primary and is made up of thousands of turns of fine wire. Current flows from the battery through the primary coil winding which creates a changing magnetic field inside the secondary coil. This induces a very high-voltage current in the secondary coil which it feeds to the distributor.

Shop Information
outside micrometer

This tool is a(n) __________.

outside micrometer

Micrometers provide accuracy to the thousandths of an inch and come in outside and inside varieties. An outside micrometer is used to measure outside thickness, such as the diameter of a bolt, while an inside micrometer is used to measure the inside dimension of an object, such as the diameter of the hole of a nut or the width of a channel.

Arithmetic Reasoning

Alex loaned Charlie $300 at an annual interest rate of 6%. If no payments are made, what is the interest owed on this loan at the end of the first year?

$18

The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:

interest = annual interest rate x loan amount

i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $300
i = 0.06 x $300
i = $18

Automotive Information

What is the function of the alternator?

replaces the electrical energy that the car draws from the battery

An automobile's electrical system runs on DC power and the bulk of that power is supplied by the battery. The alternator converts the motion of the rotor into AC power which is then fed through the rectifier to convert it to DC power that both the car and the battery can use.
