Sample Practice Test Questions

General Science

The Rh factor antigen in blood determines:

postive or negative

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.

Electronics Information

An inductor __________ changes in the electric current flowing through it.

resists

An inductor is coiled wire that stores electric energy in the form of magnetic energy and resists changes in the electric current flowing through it. If current is increasing, the inductor produces a voltage that slows the increase and, if current is decreasing, the magnetic energy in the coil opposes the decrease to keep the current flowing longer. In contrast to capacitors, inductors allow DC to pass easily but resist the flow of AC.

Rough or stern in manner or speech.
General Science

The dwarf planet Pluto is located where?

in the Kuiper Belt

The Kuiper Belt is similar to the asteroid belt but much larger. Extending beyond the orbit of Neptune, it contains objects composed mostly of frozen methane, ammonia, and water. Most notably, the Kuiper Belt is home to Pluto, a dwarf planet that, until a 2006 reclassification, was considered the ninth planet of the solar system.

Mechanical Comprehension
3.13 ft. A = 5 ft., the green box weighs 50 lbs., and the blue box weighs 80 lbs. What does distance B need to be for this lever to balance?
3.13 ft.
In order for this lever to balance, the torque acting on side A must equal the torque acting on side B. Torque is weight x distance from the fulcrum which means that the following must be true for the lever to balance:

fAdA = fBdB

For this problem, the equation becomes:

50 lbs. x 5 ft. = 80 lbs. x dB

dB = \( \frac{50 \times 5 ft⋅lb}{80 lbs.} \) = \( \frac{250 ft⋅lb}{80 lbs.} \) = 3.13 ft.

Electronics Information

What kind of diode allows current to flow in the opposite direction once a certain voltage threshold is reached?

zener diode

A diode allows current to pass easily in one direction and blocks current in the other direction. A zener diode is a diode which allows current to flow in one direction as normal and will also allow current flow in the reverse direction when the voltage is above a certain value. This value is called the breakdown voltage.

Mechanical Comprehension
How much resistance could a 190 lb. effort force lift using a block and tackle pulley that has 8 ropes supporting the resistance?
1520 lbs.

The mechanical advantage (MA) of a block and tackle pulley is equal to the number of times the effort force changes direction. An easy way to count how many times the effort force changes direction is to count the number of ropes that support the resistance which, in this problem, is 8. With a MA of 8, a 190 lbs. effort force could lift 190 lbs. x 8 = 1520 lbs. resistance.

Automotive Information

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.

Word Knowledge
Stealth most nearly means:
furtiveness
The act of moving secretly or unnoticed.
