Sample Practice Test Questions
Which of the following transfers the torque from the transmission to the drive wheels at a constant speed while accomodating the up and down movement of the suspension?
constant velocity (CV) joint
Constant velocity (CV) joints are located at both ends of a half shaft and their purpose is to transfer the torque from the transmission to the drive wheels at a constant speed while accomodating the up and down movement of the suspension. The inner CV joint connects the shaft to the transmission and the outer CV joint connects the shaft to the wheel.
What is the area of a circle with a radius of 2?
The formula for area is πr2:
a = πr2
a = π(22)
a = 4π
Which of the following statements about drill bits is not true?
drill bits are primarily left-handed
Drill bits remove material to create holes. They come in a variety of sizes, maxing out at ¼" for woodworking and ½" for metalworking. The majority of drill bits are right-handed which means they cut while rotating in a clockwise direction.
Earth's breathable air is held in which atmospheric layer?
troposphere
The Earth's atmosphere has several layers starting with the troposphere which is closest in proximity to the surface. Containing most of the Earth's breathable air (oxygen and nitrogen), it's a region with warmer temperatures closer to the surface and cooler temperatures farther away which results in the rising and falling air that generates weather.
Which of the following saws is not good for cutting wood?
hacksaw
A hacksaw has replaceable blades and is used to cut metal. The blade type is chosen based on the material that is to be cut. Blades with larger numbers of teeth per inch are more appropriate for cutting thinner materials.
This skeletal system is common in arthropods like insects, spiders, and crustaceans.
exoskeleton
An exoskeleton (external skeleton) is common in arthropods like insects, spiders, and crustaceans.
The fuel injector is regulated by the __________ which is the main computer that controls engine and transmission functions.
powertrain control module
The fuel injector sprays fuel into the air stream that's being fed into the cylinder head via the intake valve. The timing and amount of fuel are regulated by the powertrain control module (PCM) which is the main computer that controls engine and transmission functions.
