Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge
Love–struck Charlie was oblivious to everyone but the object of his affection.
careless
Lacking awareness.
Electronics Information

The rate of flow of electrons per unit time is which of the following?

current

Current is the rate of flow of electrons per unit time and is measured in amperes (A). A coulomb (C) is the quantity of electricity conveyed in one second by a current of one ampere.

Electronics Information

A capacitor is often used for which of the following purposes?

to maintain power in a circuit when the primary power source is disconnected

Capacitors store electricity and are used in circuits as temporary batteries. Capacitors are charged by DC current (AC current passes through a capacitor) and that stored charge can later be dissipated into the circuit as needed. Capacitors are often used to maintain power within a system when it is disconnected from its primary power source or to smooth out or filter voltage within a circuit.

Math Knowledge

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

all of these

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.

Word Knowledge
His incredible perception made him the best detective on the force.
cognition
Capacity for seeing or understanding.
Mechanical Comprehension
0.63 If the radius of the axle is 5 and the radius of the wheel is 8, what is the mechanical advantage of this wheel and axle configuration?
0.63

The mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is the input radius divided by the output radius:

MA = \( \frac{r_i}{r_o} \)

In this case, the input radius (where the effort force is being applied) is 5 and the output radius (where the resistance is being applied) is 8 for a mechanical advantage of \( \frac{5}{8} \) = 0.63

Electronics Information

A transistor to an electronic circuit is like a _______________ to a house?

gate

A transistor works by allowing a small amount of current applied at the base to control general current flow from collector to emitter through the transistor. A transistor acts as a gate or switch for electronic signals.

Mechanical Comprehension
17.14 lbs. If 15 lbs. of force is applied 8 ft. from the fulcrum at the blue arrow and the green box is 7 ft. from the fulcrum, how much would the green box have to weigh to balance the lever?
17.14 lbs.

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 Ra, our missing value, and plugging in our variables yields:

Ra = \( \frac{R_bd_b}{d_a} \) = \( \frac{15 lbs. \times 8 ft.}{7 ft.} \) = \( \frac{120 ft⋅lb}{7 ft.} \) = 17.14 lbs.

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.

Math Knowledge
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -7) and (2, 3). What is the slope of this line?

2\(\frac{1}{2}\)

The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -7) and (2, 3) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(3.0) - (-7.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{10}{4} \)
m = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
