Sample Practice Test Questions

Math Knowledge

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

h x l x w

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.

Shop Information

Which of the following statements about an 8-point saw is not true?

an 8-point saw makes a rougher cut than a 12-point saw

Saw blades are described by the number of teeth per inch (TPI). The higher the TPI of a saw the finer the cut it will make.

General Science

In the classification of life, bacteria, archaea and eukaryota are which of the following?

domains

The broadest classification of life splits all organisms into three groups called domains. The three domains of life are bacteria, archaea and eukaryota.

Math Knowledge

Which of the following statements about parallel lines with a transversal is not correct?

same-side interior angles are complementary and equal each other

Parallel lines are lines that share the same slope (steepness) and therefore never intersect. A transversal occurs when a set of parallel lines are crossed by another line. All of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles and angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°) and are called corresponding angles. Alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°) and all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other. Same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°).

Mechanical Comprehension
If the handles of a wheelbarrow are 1.5 ft. from the wheel axle, how many pounds of force must you exert to lift the handles if it's carrying a 130 lbs. load concentrated at a point 0.5 ft. from the axle?
43.3
This problem describes a second-class lever and, for a second class lever, the effort force multiplied by the effort distance equals the resistance force multipied by the resistance distance: Fede = Frdr. In this problem we're looking for effort force:
\( F_e = \frac{F_r d_r}{d_e} \)
\( F_e = \frac{130 \times 0.5}{1.5} \)
\( F_e = \frac{65.0}{1.5} \)
\( F_e = 43.3 \)
Math Knowledge
140

This diagram represents two parallel lines with a transversal. If c° = 40, what is the value of d°?

140

For parallel lines with a transversal, the following relationships apply:

  • angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°)
  • alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°)
  • all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other
  • same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°)

Applying these relationships starting with c° = 40, the value of d° is 140.

Automotive Information

The __________ converts pressure on the brake pedal to hydraulic pressure in the brake lines.

master cylinder

The master (brake) cylinder converts pressure on the brake pedal to hydraulic pressure in the brake lines.

General Science

Universal donor blood can be given to a person with any blood type. Which blood type is the universal donor?

O-negative

Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.

Automotive Information

Which of the following statements about fuel injection is false?

relies on suction to draw fuel into the engine

Fuel injection has replaced the carburetor as the primary automobile fuel delivery system. The main difference between the fuel injector and the carburetor is that fuel injection atomizes the fuel by forcibly pumping it through a small nozzle under high pressure while a carburetor relies on suction to draw fuel into an accelerated intake air stream.

General Science

Which of these is matter than cannot be separated into different types of matter by ordinary chemical methods?

element

An element is matter than cannot be separated into different types of matter by ordinary chemical methods.
