Sample Practice Test Questions

Automotive Information

The spark plug fires during which engine stoke?

power

During the power stroke, just before the piston reaches top dead center, the spark plug fires and ignites the compressed air-fuel mixture. The resulting expansion due to combustion pushes the piston back down the cylinder toward bottom dead center.

Math Knowledge

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

c = π d

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.

Arithmetic Reasoning

On average, the center for a basketball team hits 50% of his shots while a guard on the same team hits 60% of his shots. If the guard takes 25 shots during a game, how many shots will the center have to take to score as many points as the guard assuming each shot is worth the same number of points?

30
If the guard hits 60% of his shots and takes 25 shots he'll make:

guard shots made = shots taken x \( \frac{\text{% made}}{100} \) = 25 x \( \frac{60}{100} \) = \( \frac{60 x 25}{100} \) = \( \frac{1500}{100} \) = 15 shots

The center makes 50% of his shots so he'll have to take:

shots made = shots taken x \( \frac{\text{% made}}{100} \)
shots taken = \( \frac{\text{shots taken}}{\frac{\text{% made}}{100}} \)

to make as many shots as the guard. Plugging in values for the center gives us:

center shots taken = \( \frac{15}{\frac{50}{100}} \) = 15 x \( \frac{100}{50} \) = \( \frac{15 x 100}{50} \) = \( \frac{1500}{50} \) = 30 shots

to make the same number of shots as the guard and thus score the same number of points.

Automotive Information

The __________ splits engine power between the front and rear axles of four-wheel drive vehicles.

transfer case

The transfer case splits engine power between the front and rear axles of four-wheel drive vehicles.

Mechanical Comprehension
0.29 ft. If the green box weighs 20 lbs. and is 1 ft. from the fulcrum, how far from the fulcrum would a 70 lbs. force need to be applied to balance the lever?
0.29 ft.

To balance this lever the torques at the green box and the blue arrow must be equal. Torque is weight x distance from the fulcrum so the equation for equilibrium is:

Rada = Rbdb

where a represents the green box and b the blue arrow, R is resistance (weight/force) and d is the distance from the fulcrum.

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

db = \( \frac{R_ad_a}{R_b} \) = \( \frac{20 lbs. \times 1 ft.}{70 lbs.} \) = \( \frac{20 ft⋅lb}{70 lbs.} \) = 0.29 ft.

General Science

In the food chain, omnivores may be which of the following?

secondary or tertiary consumers

Secondary or tertiary consumers may be omnivores.

Automotive Information

What does the timing belt do?

synchronizes the camshaft and the crankshaft

Maintaining proper synchronization between the rotation of the camshaft and the rotation of the crankshaft is critical to ensure that the engine's valves open and close at the proper times during each cylinder's intake and exhaust strokes.

Shop Information
outside micrometer

This tool is a(n) __________.

outside micrometer

Micrometers provide accuracy to the thousandths of an inch and come in outside and inside varieties. An outside micrometer is used to measure outside thickness, such as the diameter of a bolt, while an inside micrometer is used to measure the inside dimension of an object, such as the diameter of the hole of a nut or the width of a channel.

Mechanical Comprehension

Which of the following is not a characteristic of a ceramic?

low density

Ceramics are mixtures of metallic and nonmetallic elements that withstand exteme thermal, chemical, and pressure environments. They have a high melting point, low corrosive action, and are chemically stable. Examples include rock, sand, clay, glass, brick, and porcelain.
