Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge
Jade placed the fragile vase out of reach of her rambunctious boys.
frail
Delicate.
Automotive Information

Which of the following is not a common vehicle cylinder arrangement?

vertical

Cylinder number and arrangement depends on the purpose of the engine. Smaller (four and six cylinder) engines in front-wheel drive vehicles often use an inline design which orients cylinders vertically over the crankshaft and aligns them in a row. Other common orientations are a horizontal/opposed design which places cylinders flat facing each other with the crankshaft between them and a V-type design common in six and eight cylinder engines that features one cylinder head per block of cylinders oriented at a 60 to 90 degree angle to each other with the crankshaft at the bottom of the V.

Word Knowledge
Trevor decided to freeze the surplus chili for next week's tailgate party.
surfeit
Excess.
Automotive Information

The combustion chamber is enclosed by the:

cylinder head

Cylinders act as a guide for the pistons that translate the heat energy of combustion into the mechanical energy necessary to move a vehicle. Piston rings seal the piston to the cylinder to contain combustion gases and also regulate the oil distribution between the piston and cylinder wall. A cylinder head closes in the top of the cylinder forming the combustion chamber which is sealed by a head gasket (head). The head provides space for air and fuel intake valves, exhaust valves, and mounts for spark plugs and fuel injectors.

General Science

The Sun is a __________-type main-sequence star.

G

The Sun is a G-type main-sequence star (G2V) but is informally known as a yellow dwarf star. Composed of 73% hydrogen and 25% helium, the hot plasma that makes up the Sun reaches 9,900°F (5,505°C) at the surface. It formed approximately 4.6 billion years ago and makes up 99.86% of the mass in the solar system.

Electronics Information
transistor

This circuit component symbol represents a(n):

transistor

The transistor is the foundation of modern electronic devices. It is made entirely from semiconductor material (making it a solid state device) and can serve many different functions in a circuit including acting as a switch, amplifier, or current regulator. 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.

Word Knowledge
Stifle most nearly means:
suppress
To repress or discourage.
Mechanical Comprehension

The force exerted on an object due to gravity is called:

weight

Mass is an intrinsic property of matter and does not vary. Weight is the force exerted on the mass of an object due to gravity and a specific case of Newton's Second Law of Motion. Replace force with weight and acceleration with acceleration due to gravity on Earth (g) and the result is the formula for weight: W = mg or, substituting for g, weight equals mass multiplied by 9.8 m/s2.

General Science

The energy posessed by a ball on the window ledge of a tall building is an example of what kind of energy?

potential

Kinetic energy is the energy posessed by a moving object. Potential energy is stored energy in a stationary object based on its location, position, shape, or state.

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:
\( F_e = \frac{F_r d_r}{d_e} \)
\( F_e = \frac{130 \times 0.5}{1.5} \)
\( F_e = \frac{65.0}{1.5} \)
\( F_e = 43.3 \)
