Sample Practice Test Questions

Mechanical Comprehension

Two gears are connected and the larger gear drives the smaller gear. The speed of rotation will __________ and the torque will __________.

increase, decrease

Connected gears of different numbers of teeth are used together to change the rotational speed and torque of the input force. If the smaller gear drives the larger gear, the speed of rotation will be reduced and the torque will increase. If the larger gear drives the smaller gear, the speed of rotation will increase and the torque will be reduced.

Electronics Information

Which of the following can conduct electricity under some conditions but not others?

semiconductor

Semiconductors have valence shells that are exacly half full and can conduct electricity under some conditions but not others. This property makes them useful for the control of electrical current.

Mechanical Comprehension
Only multiplies the effort force

Which of the following statements about this pulley configuration is false?

Only multiplies the effort force

A block and tackle is a combination of one or more fixed pulleys and one or more movable pulleys where the fixed pulleys change the direction of the effort force and the movable pulleys multiply it. The mechanical advantage is equal to the number of times the effort force changes direction and can be increased by adding more pulley wheels to the system. An easy way to find the mechanical advantage of a block and tackle pulley system is to count the number of ropes that support the resistance.

General Science

Which of the following is the primary difference between a comet and an asteroid?

comets have an atmosphere

A comet is a loose collection of ice, dust, and small rocky particles that, in contrast to an asteroid, has an extended atmosphere surrounding the center. When passing close to the Sun, this atmosphere warms and begins to release gases forming a visible coma or tail.

Word Knowledge
Ethical most nearly means:
honorable
Conforming to accepted standards.
Electronics Information

The valence shell of a semiconductor is how full of electrons?

half full

Semiconductors have valence shells that are exacly half full and can conduct electricity under some conditions but not others. This property makes them useful for the control of electrical current.

Word Knowledge
Absolve most nearly means:
exculpate
To forgive; to free from guilt.
General Science

Which of the following does not filter air as part of the respiratory system?

epiglottis

After air enters through the nose, it passes through the nasal cavity which filters, moistens, and warms it. Further filtering takes place in the pharynx, which also helps protect against infection, and then in the trachea which is just past the epiglottis which prevents food from entering the airway.

Word Knowledge
Mandate most nearly means:
command
An official order or commission to do something.
Mechanical Comprehension

A box is resting on a smooth floor. Static friction is present:

when an attempt is made to move the box

For any given surface, the coefficient of static friction is higher than the coefficient of kinetic friction. More force is required to initally get an object moving than is required to keep it moving. Additionally, static friction only arises in response to an attempt to move an object (overcome the normal force between it and the surface).
