Sample Practice Test Questions
Modern car engines are cooled by:
liquid
Modern car engines are cooled by liquid which circulates through the engine block and cylinder heads absorbing excess heat. This liquid is made up of half water and half antifreeze (commonly, ethylene glycol) which both keeps the water from freezing at low temperatures and raises its boiling point making heat transfer more efficient.
Why does current in an electric circuit create heat?
heat is created when the current overcomes resistance in the wire
Current in an electric circuit creates heat when the current overcomes resistance in the wire.
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.
A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?
all of these
The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.
Which of the following statements about an 8-point saw is not true?
an 8-point saw makes a rougher cut than a 12-point saw
Saw blades are described by the number of teeth per inch (TPI). The higher the TPI of a saw the finer the cut it will make.
What is (z5)4?
To raise a term with an exponent to another exponent, retain the base and multiply the exponents:
(z5)4Which of the following types of saws would you use if you needed to cut the wood quickly and weren't concerned with leaving rough edges?
rip saw
Wood saws are categorized primarily by their teeth. Crosscut saws utilize knife-shaped teeth that cut across the grain of the wood while rip saws cut with the grain using chisel-shaped teeth that rip the wood cells apart as the cut is made. The kerf (slot) made by by a crosscut saw is much smoother than that made by a rip saw but a rip saw cuts much faster. Coping saws are a type of bow saw used to make detailed often curving cuts using replaceable blades with fine small teeth.
