Sample Practice Test Questions

Shop Information

You need to secure a piece of wood while you're drilling a hole. Which of the following would be the most appropriate tool to use?

vise

A vise is a clamp that is anchored to a work station and designed to hold material in place while it is being operated upon.

Arithmetic Reasoning

Which of the following is an improper fraction?

\({7 \over 5} \)

A rational number (or fraction) is represented as a ratio between two integers, a and b, and has the form \({a \over b}\) where a is the numerator and b is the denominator. An improper fraction (\({5 \over 3} \)) has a numerator with a greater absolute value than the denominator and can be converted into a mixed number (\(1 {2 \over 3} \)) which has a whole number part and a fractional part.

Automotive Information

Another name for the powertrain control module is the __________ control unit.

engine

The main computer or powertrain control module (PCM) uses pre-programmed software to analyze the input received from sensors and produce output signals to adjust vehicle performance and operation. (Engine control unit (ECU) is another name for the PCM.)

Automotive Information

What is the primary difference between internal and external combustion engines?

where the power is developed

The primary difference between internal and external combustion engines lies in where the power is developed. In an internal combustion engine fuel is ignited and burned inside the same container where the power is developed while in an external combustion engine the fuel is ignited outside the engine and the resulting power sent to it.

Word Knowledge
Diffident most nearly means:
timid
Lacking self–confidence.
General Science

Atoms of an element whose atoms can vary in the number of neutrons in their nucleus are called which of the following?

isotopes

The atomic mass of an element listed in the Periodic Table represents the average mass of a single atom of that element and is measured in atomic mass units (amu). This number is an average as some elements have isotopes with atoms that vary in their number of neturons and, therefore, differ in weight.

Electronics Information

The voltage output of a transformer primarily depends on which of the following?

the number of turns in the wire of the coils

A transformer utilizes an inductor to increase or decrease the voltage in a circuit. AC flowing in a coil wrapped around an iron core magnetizes the core causing it to produce a magnetic field. This magnetic field generates a voltage in a nearby coil of wire and, depending on the number of turns in the wire of the primary (source) and secondary coils and their proximity, voltage is induced in the secondary coil.

Word Knowledge
Kim, an eloquent speaker, was the best choice to make the presentation for the group.
articulate
Fluent, expressive.
Electronics Information
20 Ω Use Ohm's Law to calculate the value of resistance in this circuit if voltage is 40 volts and current is 2 amps.
20 Ω

Ohm's law specifies the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit: V = IR.

Solved for resistance, R = \( \frac{V}{I} \) = \( \frac{40}{2} \) = 20 Ω

General Science

In which type of compound does one atom borrow an electron from another atom?

ionic

A compound is a substance containing two or more different chemical elements bound together by a chemical bond. In covalent compounds, electrons are shared between atoms. In ionic compounds, one atom borrows an electron from another atom resulting in two ions (electrically charged atoms) of opposite polarities that then become bonded electrostatically.
