Sample Practice Test Questions
The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 9 and radius (r) = 1. What is the volume?
The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:
v = πr2h
v = π(12 x 9)
v = 9π
Use Ohm's Law to calculate the value of current in this circuit if voltage is 240 volts and resistance is 40 Ω.
Ohm's law specifies the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit: V = IR.
Solved for current, I = \( \frac{V}{R} \) = \( \frac{240}{40} \) = 6 A
Which of the following is a characteristic of batteries connected in series?
total voltage equals the sum of the individual battery voltages
You can multiply the voltage or the current supplied by individual batteries by connecting them together either in series or in parallel. The characteristics of batteries connected in series are that total voltage equals the sum of the individual battery voltages, total current equals the average of the individual battery currents, the positive terminal of one battery is connected to the negative terminal of the next, and one connection is made between each adjacent battery.
The heart __________ blood.
oxygenates
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
What kind of weather front is likely to create clouds and storms?
warm front
A warm front is the boundary between warm and cool (or cold) air when the warm air is replacing the cold air. Warm air at the surface pushes above the cool air mass creating clouds and storms.
You need to secure a piece of wood while you're drilling a hole. Which of the following would be the most appropriate tool to use?
vise
A vise is a clamp that is anchored to a work station and designed to hold material in place while it is being operated upon.
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit of time. Which of these is the formula for acceleration?
\(\vec{a} = { \Delta \vec{v} \over t }\)
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit of time. In physics, the delta symbol (\(\Delta\)) represents change so the formula for acceleration becomes \(\vec{a} = { \Delta \vec{v} \over t }\)
Antigens in the blood determine:
blood type
Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.
