Sample Practice Test Questions

General Science

In fermentation, what replaces oxygen in anaerobic respiration?

lactic acid or alcohol

If no oxygen is present, cellular respiration is anaerobic and will result in fermentation where either lactic acid or alcohol is used instead of oxygen.

Math Knowledge
72π

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 4. What is the surface area?

72π

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(42) + 2π(4 x 5)
sa = 2π(16) + 2π(20)
sa = (2 x 16)π + (2 x 20)π
sa = 32π + 40π
sa = 72π

Word Knowledge
Duplicity most nearly means:
deceit
Deceptive thought, speech, or action.
Mechanical Comprehension

Power is the rate at which:

work is done

Power is the rate at which work is done, P = w/t, or work per unit time. The watt (W) is the unit for power and is equal to 1 joule (or newton-meter) per second. Horsepower (hp) is another familiar unit of power used primarily for rating internal combustion engines. 1 hp equals 746 watts.

Automotive Information

Which of the following is the correct order for the engine stroke cycle?

intake, compression, power, exhaust

The stroke cycle order is intake stroke, compression stroke, power stroke, exhaust stroke.

Word Knowledge
The repentant Dana admitted to cheating on the test.
contrite
Feeling regret.
Electronics Information

Which of the following will increase the magnetic field produced by the electric current in a wire?

wind the wire into a coil

A moving electric current produces a magnetic field proportional to the amount of current flow. This magnetic field can be made stronger by winding the wire into a coil and further enhanced if done around an iron containing (ferrous) core.

General Science

A major difference between sound waves and light waves is which of the following?

all of these are correct

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.

Mechanical Comprehension
3.13 ft. A = 5 ft., the green box weighs 50 lbs., and the blue box weighs 80 lbs. What does distance B need to be for this lever to balance?
3.13 ft.
In order for this lever to balance, the torque acting on side A must equal the torque acting on side B. Torque is weight x distance from the fulcrum which means that the following must be true for the lever to balance:

fAdA = fBdB

For this problem, the equation becomes:

50 lbs. x 5 ft. = 80 lbs. x dB

dB = \( \frac{50 \times 5 ft⋅lb}{80 lbs.} \) = \( \frac{250 ft⋅lb}{80 lbs.} \) = 3.13 ft.

Math Knowledge

Solve for z:
2z + 2 < 8 - 8z

z < \(\frac{3}{5}\)

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the < sign and the answer on the other.

2z + 2 < 8 - 8z
2z < 8 - 8z - 2
2z + 8z < 8 - 2
10z < 6
z < \( \frac{6}{10} \)
z < \(\frac{3}{5}\)
