Sample Practice Test Questions

Automotive Information

The two major types of vehicle braking systems are:

drum and disc

Brakes utlize friction to slow vehicle tires. Drum brakes employ a cast iron drum that roates with the vehicle axle. When hydraulic pressure is applied to the brake assemblies at the wheels, internal pistons expand and push brake shoes outward into contact with the brake drum slowing the rotation of the axle. More powerful disc brakes operate by pinching a rotating disc betweeen two brake pads and allow for a larger surface area to contact the disc, provide more force, and are more easily cooled.

Mechanical Comprehension

Which of the following is not a type of simple machine?

gear

The six types of simple machines are the lever, wheel and axle, pulley, inclined plane, wedge, and screw.

General Science

An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of __________ animals, including humans.

vertebrate

An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of vertebrate animals, including humans.

Word Knowledge
Stealth most nearly means:
furtiveness
The act of moving secretly or unnoticed.
Word Knowledge
Equitable most nearly means:
impartial
Fair and equal.
Word Knowledge
Retroactive most nearly means:
retrograde
effective as of a prior time or condition.
Automotive Information

Control arms connect a vehicle's suspension to the frame. The connection to the frame uses:

bushings

Control arms (upper and lower) connect a vehicle's suspension to the frame. The connection to the wheels is through ball joints which allow the control arms to turn and move up and down simultaneously. The frame connection uses bushings.

Mechanical Comprehension

Which of the following will increase the mechanical advantage of a second-class lever?

move the object being lifted closer to the fulcrum

A second-class lever is used to increase force on an object in the same direction as the force is applied. This lever requires a smaller force to lift a larger load but the force must be applied over a greater distance. The fulcrum is placed at one end of the lever and mechanical advantage increases as the object being lifted is moved closer to the fulcrum or the length of the lever is increased. An example of a second-class lever is a wheelbarrow.

Electronics Information
diode

This circuit component symbol represents a(n):

diode

A diode allows current to pass easily in one direction and blocks current in the other direction. Diodes are commonly used for rectification which is the conversion of alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). Because a diode only allows current flow in one direction, it will pass either the upper or lower half of AC waves (half-wave rectification) creating pulsating DC. Multiple diodes can be connected together to utilize both halves of the AC signal in full-wave rectification.

Shop Information

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.
