Sample Practice Test Questions
Sam can do 50 ft. lb. of work in 2 minutes and 5 seconds. What would Sam have to do to increase his power output?
do the work in 2 minutes
Power is the rate of doing work or \(\frac{W}{t}\). To increase power, increase the work being done in the same amount of time or do the same amount of work in less time.
In cell biology, what part of the cell contains organelles?
cytoplasm
The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles.
If a mayor is elected with 86% of the votes cast and 68% of a town's 29,000 voters cast a vote, how many votes did the mayor receive?
If 68% of the town's 29,000 voters cast ballots the number of votes cast is:
(\( \frac{68}{100} \)) x 29,000 = \( \frac{1,972,000}{100} \) = 19,720
The mayor got 86% of the votes cast which is:
(\( \frac{86}{100} \)) x 19,720 = \( \frac{1,695,920}{100} \) = 16,959 votes.
Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue that connect muscles to the skeleton are called:
tendons
Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue called tendons connect muscles to the skeleton while another type of connective tissue called ligaments connect bones to other bones at joints (elbow, knee, fingers, spinal column).
What is the area of a circle with a radius of 2?
The formula for area is πr2:
a = πr2
a = π(22)
a = 4π
Simplify (5a)(2ab) - (9a2)(3b).
To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.
(5a)(2ab) - (9a2)(3b)
(5 x 2)(a x a x b) - (9 x 3)(a2 x b)
(10)(a1+1 x b) - (27)(a2b)
10a2b - 27a2b
-17a2b
Which of the following is the result of combustion being initiated by a source other than the spark plug?
pre-ignition
Normal combustion in an engine is initiated by a spark plug and results in the complete burning of the air-fuel mixture. If combustion is initiated by a source other than the spark plug, by a hot spot in the cylinder or combustion chamber for example, pre-ignition results. Detonation results if the air-fuel mixture explodes instead of burning. Detonation can cause extremes in pressure in the combustion chamber leading to engine damage.
Minerals, vitamins, and fiber are:
micronutrients
Minterals, vitamins, and fiber are micronutrients while proteins, carbohydrates, and fats are macronutrients.
