Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge
Prudent most nearly means:
judicious
Marked by wisdom, shrewd.
General Science

I biome is made up of naturally occurring flora and fauna.  Fauna is which of the following?

animals

A biome is a large naturally occurring community of flora (plants) and fauna (animals) occupying a major habitat (home or environment).

Mechanical Comprehension

Lisa lifts a 25 pound box from the floor onto a loading dock 4 ft. off the ground. Sam slides the same box along a ramp to move it up another 4 ft. onto a flatbed truck. Who has done more work?

They have done an equal amount of work

Work is force multiplied by distance. Because both Connie and Sam moved the same weight the same distance they have done an equal amount of work. Sam employed the mechnacial advantage of an inclined plane so he exerted less effort to do the work but the amount of work done was still the same.

Arithmetic Reasoning

If the ratio of home fans to visiting fans in a crowd is 3:1 and all 38,000 seats in a stadium are filled, how many home fans are in attendance?

28,500

A ratio of 3:1 means that there are 3 home fans for every one visiting fan. So, of every 4 fans, 3 are home fans and \( \frac{3}{4} \) of every fan in the stadium is a home fan:

38,000 fans x \( \frac{3}{4} \) = \( \frac{114000}{4} \) = 28,500 fans.

Electronics Information
potentiometer

This circuit component symbol represents a(n):

potentiometer

Resistors are used to limit voltage and/or current in a circuit and can have a fixed or variable resistance.  Variable resistors (often called potentiometers or rheostats) are used when dynamic control over the voltage/current in a circuit is needed, for example, in a light dimmer or volume control.

General Science

Which of the following would be used in eye glasses to correct nearsightedness?

concave lens

Unlike curved mirrors that operate on the principle of reflection, lenses utilize refraction. A convex lens is thicker in the middle than on the edges and converges light while a concave lens is thicker on the edges than in the middle and diffuses light. A common use for curved lenses is in eye glasses where a convex lens is used to correct farsightedness and a concave lens is used to correct nearsightedness.

Shop Information

Inside and outside micrometers measure inside and outside:

diameters

Micrometers measure the diameter of cylindrical objects. Outside micrometers measure the external diameter of cylinders and inside micrometers measure the internal diameter of the cylinder's hole.

Automotive Information

The piston moves downward in the cylinder creating a vacuum that pulls an air-fuel mix into the combustion chamber. This describes which engine stroke?

intake

The four-stroke piston cycle of internal combustion engines starts with the piston at top of the cylinder head (top dead center or TDC) during the intake stroke. The piston moves downward in the cylinder creating a vacuum that pulls an air-fuel mix into the combustion chamber through the now open intake valve.

Mechanical Comprehension
What is the efficiency of a machine has work input of 100 ft⋅lb and work output of 35 ft⋅lb?
35%
Due to friction, a machine will never be able to utilize 100% of its work input. A certain percentage of that input will be lost in overcoming friction within the machine. Effeciency is a measure of how much of a machine's work input can be turned into useful work output and is calculated by dividing work output by work input and multiplying the result by 100:
\( Efficiency = \frac{Work_{out}}{Work_{in}} \times 100 \) \( = \frac{35 ft⋅lb}{100 ft⋅lb} \times 100 \) \( = 35% \) %
Word Knowledge
The turpitude of the villain in the movie offended most audiences.
corruption
Essential baseness, depravity.
