Sample Practice Test Questions

Electronics Information

Which of the following is not a characteristic of a step-up transformer?

the primary voltage is higher than the secondary voltage

As their names indicate, a step-up transformer is used to step up or increase voltage and a step-down transformer is used to step down or decrease voltage. In a step-up transformer, the secondary voltage is higher than the primary voltage and it has more turns in the secondary winding than in the primary winding.

General Science

Which of the following is not a method of heat transfer?

reflection

Heat is always transferred from warmer to cooler environments through conduction, convection, or radiation.

Mechanical Comprehension

The force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system is called:

mechanical advantage

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system. Such a device utilizes input force and trades off forces against movement to amplify and/or change its direction.

Shop Information

You're constructing a cabinet in your workshop and one of the cabinet doors is slightly too big. Which of the following tools would you use to make it fit?

plane

In wooodworking, a plane is used to shave off a small amount of material to smooth a surface or make it fit properly. A jack plane is a general purpose plane that contains an adjustable depth blade set at an angle with a handle and knob to allow gripping when sliding the plane across wood.

Word Knowledge
Her excellent lecture illuminated the complicated subject of nuclear physics.
elucidate
To make clear.
Automotive Information

Piston rings are responsible for which of the following?

regulating oil distribution inside the cylinder

Cylinders act as a guide for the pistons that translate the heat energy of combustion into the mechanical energy necessary to move a vehicle. Piston rings seal the piston to the cylinder to contain combustion gases and also regulate the oil distribution between the piston and cylinder wall. A cylinder head closes in the top of the cylinder forming the combustion chamber which is sealed by a head gasket (head). The head provides space for air and fuel intake valves, exhaust valves, and mounts for spark plugs and fuel injectors.

Automotive Information

The firing order of the cylinders in an engine can be found by:

observing the order in which the intake valves open

The firing order of the cylinders in an engine is different than the cynlinder numbers and can be found by observing the order in which the intake valves open.

Shop Information
chisels

These tools are called:

chisels

Wood chisels are used to shape or smooth wood surfaces. They come in a variety of widths and can be used with hand power or tapped with a mallet when deeper cuts need to be made.

Automotive Information

Which of these is not necessary for combustion?

accelerant

Combustion is the burning of an air-fuel mixture to provide energy. It requires the presence of air, fuel, and a heat source to ignite the air-fuel mixture. In the internal combustion engine that powers automobiles and trucks the combustion happens inside the engine utilzing a fuel like gasoline, diesel fuel, or natural gas.

Mechanical Comprehension

A screw is most like which of the following other simple machines?

inclined plane

A screw is an inclined plane wrapped in ridges (threads) around a cylinder. The distance between these ridges defines the pitch of the screw and this distance is how far the screw advances when it is turned once. The mechanical advantage of a screw is its circumference divided by the pitch.
