Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge

Arithmetic Reasoning

\({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\) defines which of the following?

distributive property for division

The distributive property for division helps in solving expressions like \({b + c \over a}\). It specifies that the result of dividing a fraction with multiple terms in the numerator and one term in the denominator can be obtained by dividing each term individually and then totaling the results: \({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\). For example, \({a^3 + 6a^2 \over a^2} = {a^3 \over a^2} + {6a^2 \over a^2} = a + 6\).

Electronics Information
resistor

This circuit component symbol represents a(n):

resistor

Resistors are used to limit voltage and/or current in a circuit and can have a fixed or variable resistance.  Variable resistors (often called potentiometers or rheostats) are used when dynamic control over the voltage/current in a circuit is needed, for example, in a light dimmer or volume control.

Mechanical Comprehension

A fixed pulley has a mechanical advantage of:

1

A fixed pulley is used to change the direction of a force and does not multiply the force applied. As such, it has a mechanical advantage of one. The benefit of a fixed pulley is that it can allow the force to be applied at a more convenient angle, for example, pulling downward or horizontally to lift an object instead of upward.

Word Knowledge
Archetypal most nearly means:
classic
Characteristic of the original model or perfect example.
Mechanical Comprehension
70 lbs. of effort is used by a machine to lift a 350 lbs. box. What is the mechanical advantage of the machine?
5

Mechanical advantage is resistance force divided by effort force:

MA = \( \frac{F_r}{F_e} \) = \( \frac{350 lbs.}{70 lbs.} \) = 5

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.

Shop Information

What is a framing square used for?

marking lines at a right angle

Rulers are used to both measure distance and to draw straight lines. Tape measures are flexible rulers made from cloth or metal and are useful for measuring longer distances and in tighter spaces. Both rulers and tape measures provide similar accuracy, commonly down to \({1 \over 16}\) or \({1 \over 32}\) inch. A steel framing square is made up of a shorter ruler (tongue) and a longer ruler (blade) that meet at a 90° (right) angle. A framing square is often used by carpenters when framing stairs and roofs.

Word Knowledge
Incisive most nearly means:
keen
Impressively direct and decisive.
