Simplify 7a x 6b.
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.
7a x 6b = (7 x 6) (a x b) = 42ab
Which engine component converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotational motion that's used to power the vehicle and its components?
crankshaft
The crankshaft converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotational motion that's used to power the vehicle and its components.
General current flow in a transistor is from __________ to __________.
collector, emitter
The transistor is the foundation of modern electronic devices. It is made entirely from semiconductor material (making it a solid state device) and can serve many different functions in a circuit including acting as a switch, amplifier, or current regulator. A transistor works by allowing a small amount of current applied at the base to control general current flow from collector to emitter through the transistor.
Which of the following is not a part of the oil pump?
oil galleries
The oil pump is driven by the camshaft and is responsible for pumping oil through the oil galleries (passages) that run throughout the engine. It also contains the oil filter and a pressure relief valve which prevents excessive pressure from building up in the lubrication system.
An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of __________ animals, including humans.
vertebrate
An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of vertebrate animals, including humans.
The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 4, b = 8, c = 7, d = 4, and h = 2. What is the area?
The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:
a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(8 + 4)(2)
a = ½(12)(2)
a = ½(24) = \( \frac{24}{2} \)
a = 12
If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.
bisects
A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.
