Sample Practice Test Questions

Shop Information
outside micrometer

This tool is a(n) __________.

outside micrometer

Micrometers provide accuracy to the thousandths of an inch and come in outside and inside varieties. An outside micrometer is used to measure outside thickness, such as the diameter of a bolt, while an inside micrometer is used to measure the inside dimension of an object, such as the diameter of the hole of a nut or the width of a channel.

Word Knowledge
Beneficial most nearly means:
advantageous
Helpful.
Electronics Information

The conversion of alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC) is called:

rectification

A diode allows current to pass easily in one direction and blocks current in the other direction. Diodes are commonly used for rectification which is the conversion of alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). Because a diode only allows current flow in one direction, it will pass either the upper or lower half of AC waves (half-wave rectification) creating pulsating DC. Multiple diodes can be connected together to utilize both halves of the AC signal in full-wave rectification.

Math Knowledge

Simplify (9a)(8ab) + (7a2)(8b).

128a2b

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(9a)(8ab) + (7a2)(8b)
(9 x 8)(a x a x b) + (7 x 8)(a2 x b)
(72)(a1+1 x b) + (56)(a2b)
72a2b + 56a2b
128a2b

Mechanical Comprehension

The advantage of using a third-class lever is that it increases:

the speed of the load

A third-class lever is used to increase distance traveled by an object in the same direction as the force applied. The fulcrum is at one end of the lever, the object at the other, and the force is applied between them. This lever does not impart a mechanical advantage as the effort force must be greater than the load but does impart extra speed to the load. Examples of third-class levers are shovels and tweezers.

Arithmetic Reasoning

If \( \left|x + 9\right| \) - 3 = 7, which of these is a possible value for x?

-19

First, solve for \( \left|x + 9\right| \):

\( \left|x + 9\right| \) - 3 = 7
\( \left|x + 9\right| \) = 7 + 3
\( \left|x + 9\right| \) = 10

The value inside the absolute value brackets can be either positive or negative so (x + 9) must equal + 10 or -10 for \( \left|x + 9\right| \) to equal 10:

x + 9 = 10
x = 10 - 9
x = 1
x + 9 = -10
x = -10 - 9
x = -19

So, x = -19 or x = 1.

General Science

Which of the following describes how a person's genes express themselves in physical characteristics?

phenotype

A person's genotype is their genetic makeup and includes both dominant and recessive alleles. Phenotype is how the genes express themselves in physical characteristics.

Mechanical Comprehension
What is the power output of a 9 hp engine that's 85% efficient?
4207.5 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \)
\( Efficiency = \frac{Power_{out}}{Power_{in}} \times 100 \)
Solving for power out: \( P_{o} = \frac{E \times P_{i}}{100} \)
Knowing that 1 hp = 550 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \), Pi becomes 9 hp x 550 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \) = 4950 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \)
\( P_{o} = \frac{E \times P_{i}}{100} = \frac{85 \times 4950 \frac{ft⋅lb}{s}}{100} \) \( = \frac{420750 \frac{ft⋅lb}{s}}{100} \) = 4207.5 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \)
Word Knowledge
Jonah regretted entangling Parker in his legal difficulties.
embroil
To involve in trouble.
Automotive Information

Cylinder air and fuel intake valves, exhaust valves, and mounts for spark plugs and fuel injectors are contained in the:

head gasket

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.
