Sample Practice Test Questions

Mechanical Comprehension
If the handles of a wheelbarrow are 1.5 ft. from the wheel axle, how many pounds of force must you exert to lift the handles if it's carrying a 130 lbs. load concentrated at a point 0.5 ft. from the axle?
43.3
This problem describes a second-class lever and, for a second class lever, the effort force multiplied by the effort distance equals the resistance force multipied by the resistance distance: Fede = Frdr. In this problem we're looking for effort force:
\( F_e = \frac{F_r d_r}{d_e} \)
\( F_e = \frac{130 \times 0.5}{1.5} \)
\( F_e = \frac{65.0}{1.5} \)
\( F_e = 43.3 \)
Electronics Information
How would you connect 8 [9V 15A] batteries to achieve a combined power output of 9V 120A?
parallel

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.

Math Knowledge

If a = 9 and y = 8, what is the value of 2a(a - y)?

18

To solve this equation, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)

2a(a - y)
2(9)(9 - 8)
2(9)(1)
(18)(1)
18

Word Knowledge
Authoritarian most nearly means:
strict
Favoring absolute obedience to authority.
Word Knowledge
Pretentious most nearly means:
pompous
Making unjustified claims.
Word Knowledge
Deferment most nearly means:
postponement
The act of delaying.
General Science

Which of the following does not represent the freezing point of water?

0°F

The Fahrenheit scale fixes the freezing point of water at 32°F, the Celsuis scale at 0°C, and the Kelvin scale at 273K.

Arithmetic Reasoning

In a class of 24 students, 14 are taking German and 6 are taking Spanish. Of the students studying German or Spanish, 3 are taking both courses. How many students are not enrolled in either course?

7

The number of students taking German or Spanish is 14 + 6 = 20. Of that group of 20, 3 are taking both languages so they've been counted twice (once in the German group and once in the Spanish group). Subtracting them out leaves 20 - 3 = 17 who are taking at least one language. 24 - 17 = 7 students who are not taking either language.

Electronics Information

Why does current in an electric circuit create heat?

heat is created when the current overcomes resistance in the wire

Current in an electric circuit creates heat when the current overcomes resistance in the wire.

Automotive Information

For inline cylinder arrangements in an engine, how are the cylinders numbered?

sequentially from the front of the engine to the back

Inline cylinder arrangements number cylinders sequentially (1, 2, 3, ...) front to rear.
