Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge
Abate most nearly means:
subside
Become less in amount or intensity.
General Science

The ozone layer is in which of Earth's atmospheric layers?

stratosphere

The stratosphere is just above the troposphere and is stratified in temperature with warmer layers higher and cooler layers closer to Earth. This increase in temperature is a result of absorption of the Sun's radiation by the ozone layer.

Mechanical Comprehension
If the handles of a wheelbarrow are 2.5 ft. from the wheel axle and the load is concentrated at a point 1.0 ft. from the axle, how many pounds of load will a 130 lbs. force lift?
325
This problem describes a second-class lever and, for a second class lever, the effort force multiplied by the effort distance equals the resistance force multipied by the resistance distance: Fede = Frdr. In this problem we're looking for resistance force:
\( F_r = \frac{F_e d_e}{d_r} \)
\( F_r = \frac{130 \times 2.5}{1.0} \)
\( F_r = \frac{325.0}{1.0} \)
\( F_r = 325 \)
Electronics Information

The ampere is a unit of measurement for:

current

Current is the rate of flow of electrons per unit time and is measured in amperes (A). A coulomb (C) is the quantity of electricity conveyed in one second by a current of one ampere.

Automotive Information

Ignition timing defines the point in time at the end of the compression stroke that which of the following happens?

spark plugs fire

Ignition timing defines the point in time at the end of the compression stroke that the spark plug fires. Measured in number of degrees before top dead center (BTDC), the exact point that the spark plugs initiate combustion varies depending on the speed of the engine. The timing is advanced (the spark plugs fire a few more degrees BTDC) when the engine is running faster and retarded when it's running slower.

Mechanical Comprehension

Which of the following is not a modulus of elasticity?

stress modulus

The modulus of elasticity measures how much a material or structure will deflect under stress. Stretch modulus is longitudinal stretch (like stretching raw bread dough), shear modulus is longitudinal deflection (like the horizontal displacement of a stack of magzines when a heavy object is placed upon them), and bulk modulus is compression of volume (like the compression of a loaf of bread under a heavy can at the bottom of a grocery bag).

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.

Mechanical Comprehension

Coplanar forces:

act in a common plane

Collinear forces act along the same line of action, concurrent forces pass through a common point and coplanar forces act in a common plane.

Mechanical Comprehension

A screw is most like which of the following other simple machines?

inclined plane

A screw is an inclined plane wrapped in ridges (threads) around a cylinder. The distance between these ridges defines the pitch of the screw and this distance is how far the screw advances when it is turned once. The mechanical advantage of a screw is its circumference divided by the pitch.

General Science

A person's genotype is their genetic makeup and includes:

both dominant and recessive alleles

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.
