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
The firing order of the cylinders in an engine can be found by:
observing the order in which the intake valves open
The firing order of the cylinders in an engine is different than the cynlinder numbers and can be found by observing the order in which the intake valves open.
A vehicle's lighting system is protected from current spikes by:
fuses and circuit breakers
The lighting system consists of interior lights, instrument panel lighting, headlights, and taillights. Like household electrical circuits, the vehicle's lighting system is protected from current spikes by fuses and circuit breakers.
Connecting the 8 batteries in series multiplies their voltage while keeping their current the same yielding a 72V 15A configuration. Connecting the 8 batteries in parallel multiplies their current while keeping their voltage the same yieleding a 9V 120A configuration. Using a series-parallel connection, 4 batteries can be connected in series and 4 can be connected in parallel resulting in a 36V 60A configuration.
In taxonomy, domains are the broadest classification of life. How many domains are there?
3
The broadest classification of life splits all organisms into three groups called domains. The three domains of life are bacteria, archaea and eukaryota.
Neurons are part of the __________ nervous system.
peripheral
The nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system) and the peripheral nervous system which is the network of nerve cells (neurons) that collect and distribute signals from the central nervous system throughout the body.
If side a = 8, side b = 4, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 82 + 42
c2 = 64 + 16
c2 = 80
c = \( \sqrt{80} \)
