Sample Practice Test Questions
The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 9 and radius (r) = 1. What is the volume?
The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:
v = πr2h
v = π(12 x 9)
v = 9π
What is 9a - 7a?
To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.
9a - 7a = 2a
This circuit component symbol represents a(n):
AC source
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.
Which of these represents the path of blood flow through the heart?
right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
Screwdrivers are most broadly classified by their:
tip
Screwdrivers come in many different handle, shaft, and tip configurations for use in a wide variety of applications. Screwdrivers are classified by their tip which is shaped to fit a corresponding screw head. Common tips are slotted (flat) and Phillips (x-shaped).
Mechanical advantage is resistance force divided by effort force:
MA = \( \frac{F_r}{F_e} \) = \( \frac{350 lbs.}{70 lbs.} \) = 5
The two heart chambers that pump blood called:
ventricles
The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.
Gear ratio indicates which of the following about two connected gears?
mechanical advantage
The mechanical advantage (amount of change in speed or torque) of connected gears is proportional to the number of teeth each gear has. Called gear ratio, it's the ratio of the number of teeth on the larger gear to the number of teeth on the smaller gear. For example, a gear with 12 teeth connected to a gear with 9 teeth would have a gear ratio of 4:3.
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?
third
Newton's third law of motion states that For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When an object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts a force of equal magnitude in the opposite direction on the first object.
