Sample Practice Test Questions

Mechanical Comprehension
2.5 lbs. If the green box weighs 20 lbs. and is 1 ft. from the fulcrum, how much weight would need to be placed at the blue arrow to balance the lever if the arrow's distance from the fulcrum is 8 ft.?
2.5 lbs.

To balance this lever the torques on each side of the fulcrum must be equal. Torque is weight x distance from the fulcrum so the equation for equilibrium is:

Rada = Rbdb

where a represents the left side of the fulcrum and b the right, R is resistance (weight) and d is the distance from the fulcrum.

Solving for Rb, our missing value, and plugging in our variables yields:

Rb = \( \frac{R_ad_a}{d_b} \) = \( \frac{20 lbs. \times 1 ft.}{8 ft.} \) = \( \frac{20 ft⋅lb}{8 ft.} \) = 2.5 lbs.

Shop Information

You're replacing the hubcaps on a car. Which of the following are you most likely to use?

rubber mallet

A mallet is a hammer with a relatively large head, often made of rubber or wood. Both the size and material of the mallet head help prevent damage when striking more delicate surfaces.

Word Knowledge
The impatient Zoe found the longwinded lecture interminable.
ceaseless
Never ending, or seemingly endless.
Automotive Information

Which of the following is not an advantage that disc brakes have over drum brakes?

use less brake fluid

Brakes utlize friction to slow vehicle tires. Drum brakes employ a cast iron drum that roates with the vehicle axle. When hydraulic pressure is applied to the brake assemblies at the wheels, internal pistons expand and push brake shoes outward into contact with the brake drum slowing the rotation of the axle. More powerful disc brakes operate by pinching a rotating disc betweeen two brake pads and allow for a larger surface area to contact the disc, provide more force, and are more easily cooled.

Automotive Information

Another name for a reciprocating engine is a(n):

piston engine

A reciprocating engine is an engine whose crankshaft is turned by pistons moving up and down in a cylinder.

General Science

What is a major difference between the somatic and autonomic nervous systems?

one controls voluntary activity, one controls involuntary activity

Both are part of the peripheral nervous system. The somatic nervous system sends sensory information to the central nervous system and controls voluntary actions while the autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary activity in the heart, stomach, and intestines.

General Science

Within DNA, a variety of a particular gene is called a(n):

allele

The gene is the base unit of inheritance and is contained within DNA. A gene may come in several varieties (alleles) and there are a pair of alleles for every gene. If the alleles are alike, a person is homozygous for that gene. If the alleles are different, heterozygous.

Word Knowledge
Thelma tended to polarize discussions rather than to encourage compromise.
divide
To break up into opposing groups.
General Science

The large intestine does which of the following?

processes the physical waste produced by digestion

The large intestine (colon) follows the small intestine and processes the physical waste produced by digestion, absorbing water and minerials that remain back into the body. Solid waste is then stored in the rectum while liquid waste is stored in the bladder.

Word Knowledge
Trevor decided to freeze the surplus chili for next week's tailgate party.
surfeit
Excess.
