Sample Practice Test Questions
An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
liquid
In the liquid state, molecules flow freely around each other and exist at a higher temperature range than the same substance in a solid state. Liquids maintain a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
Which of the following is not a medium for sound waves?
vacuum
A vibrating object produces a sound wave that travels outwardly from the object through a medium (any liquid or solid matter). The vibration disturbs the particles in the surrounding medium, those particles disturb the particules next to them, and so on, as the sound propagates away from the vibration.
Menstruation occurs when:
the ovum fails to become fertilized
If the ovum fails to become fertilized, the lining of the uterus sloughs off during menstruation. From puberty to menopause, this cycle of menstruation repeats monthly (except during pregnancy).
DNA is encoded through a combination of which of the following?
nucleotides
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the molecule that contains genetic information. DNA is encoded through a combination of nucleotides that bind together in a specific double helix pattern.
When a car engine is running, what provides electrical current to recharge the battery and power the electrical system?
alternator
Once the engine is running, the alternator provides electrical current to recharge the battery and power the electrical system. The alternator is driven by the engine's crankshaft and produces alternating current (AC) which is then fed through a rectifier bridge to convert it to the direct current (DC) required by the electrical system. A voltage regulator controls the output of the alternator to maintain a consistent voltage (approx. 14.5 volts) in the electrical system regardless of load.
If A = 9 ft. and the green box weighs 30 lbs. what is the torque acting on the A side of this lever?
Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?
equilateral and isosceles
An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.
