Sample Practice Test Questions

Electronics Information

Which of the following is not a characteristic of direct current?

an example power source is a generator

Direct current flows in only one direction in a circuit, from the negative terminal of the voltage source to the positive. A common source of DC is a battery. In contrast to the constant one-way flow of direct current, alternating current changes direction many times each second. Electricity is delivered from power stations to customers as AC because it provides a more efficient way to transport electricity over long distances.

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.

Word Knowledge
The frugal shopper only bought items that were on sale.
sparing
Thrifty, cheap.

0.29 ft. If the green box weighs 20 lbs. and is 1 ft. from the fulcrum, how far from the fulcrum would a 70 lbs. force need to be applied to balance the lever?
0.29 ft.

To balance this lever the torques at the green box and the blue arrow must be equal. Torque is weight x distance from the fulcrum so the equation for equilibrium is:

Rada = Rbdb

where a represents the green box and b the blue arrow, R is resistance (weight/force) and d is the distance from the fulcrum.

Solving for db, our missing value, and plugging in our variables yields:

db = \( \frac{R_ad_a}{R_b} \) = \( \frac{20 lbs. \times 1 ft.}{70 lbs.} \) = \( \frac{20 ft⋅lb}{70 lbs.} \) = 0.29 ft.

Electronics Information

A transformer utilizes an inductor to increase or decrease what in a circuit?

voltage

A transformer utilizes an inductor to increase or decrease the voltage in a circuit. AC flowing in a coil wrapped around an iron core magnetizes the core causing it to produce a magnetic field. This magnetic field generates a voltage in a nearby coil of wire and, depending on the number of turns in the wire of the primary (source) and secondary coils and their proximity, voltage is induced in the secondary coil.

General Science

In the metric system, what prefix represents 103?

kilo

Kilo is the metric system prefix for 103.

Math Knowledge

Which of the following statements about a triangle is not true?

exterior angle = sum of two adjacent interior angles

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. It has three interior angles that add up to 180° (a + b + c = 180°). An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite (d = b + c). The perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of its three sides, the height of a triangle is equal to the length from the base to the opposite vertex (angle) and the area equals one-half triangle base x height: a = ½ base x height.

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

Which of the following is the formula for gravitational potential energy?

\(PE = mgh\)

Gravitational potential energy is energy by virtue of gravity. The higher an object is raised above a surface the greater the distance it must fall to reach that surface and the more velocity it will build as it falls. For gravitational potential energy, PE = mgh where m is mass (kilograms), h is height (meters), and g is acceleration due to gravity which is a constant (9.8 m/s2).

Word Knowledge
Placebo most nearly means:
sugar pill
An inactive substance used in medical testing.
