A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 40% off." If Monty buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $50, how much money will he save?
By buying two shirts, Monty will save $50 x \( \frac{40}{100} \) = \( \frac{$50 x 40}{100} \) = \( \frac{$2000}{100} \) = $20.00 on the second shirt.
Which of the following is used in metal work for shaping metal?
ball peen hammer
Ball peen hammers are most commonly used in automotive repair. They have rounded heads and are used to drive punches and chisels.
A human heart consists of how many chambers?
4
The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.
One of the lights on your Christmas tree burns out and this causes the rest of the lights connected to that strand to go dark. How are the lights in that strand connected?
series
Lights connected in series form a chain with each light connecting to adjacent lights via one wire. Therefore, if one of the lights burns out and breaks the series, none of the other lights will receive power and they'll go dark. Lights connected in parallel each connect to the positive and negative nodes of the power source and would not go dark if one of their neighbors burnt out.
From what energy do photovoltaic cells produce electrical energy?
sun
A photovoltaic cell (also known as a solar cell) converts energy from the sun into electrical energy.
The fuel injectors are fed fuel by the:
electric fuel pump
The electric fuel pump feeds pressurized fuel through a fuel filter to the fuel injectors via the fuel rail manifold. The fuel rail contains the fuel pressure regulator which ensures that the fuel injectors receive fuel at a consistent and known rate. Excess fuel bled off by the pressure regulator returns to the fuel tank through the fuel return line.
Which of the following regulates the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves in each cylinder in time with the motion of the piston?
camshaft
The camshaft is linked to the crankshaft through a timing belt and regulates the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves in each cylinder in time with the motion of the piston. An engine designated OverHead Camshaft (OHC) locates the camshaft in the cylinder head. An engine with Double OverHead Camshaft (DOHC) has two camshafts, one to regulate the intake valves and one to regulate the exhaust valves.
