Sample Practice Test Questions
Which of the following is not an advantage of using a ratchet with a larger point-sized socket?
larger point sizes allow easier alignment
A ratchet (or socket wrench) is a wrench that applies torque in only one direction with a handle that can be moved back and forth without losing contact with the fastener. A ratchet uses variable attachments called sockets which come in a variety of drive sizes based on the size of the opening that attaches to the ratchet. Sockets with the same drive size will vary in the shape (six-point, twelve-point) and size of the nut opening that attaches to the fastener being tightened or loosened. Smaller point sized sockets are stronger and can apply greater torque while larger point sizes allow easier alignment.
What part of the food chain serves only as food for other organisms?
producers
Producers (autotrophs) serve as a food source for other organisms. Typical producers are plants that can make their own food through photosynthesis and certain bacteria that are capable of converting inorganic substances into food through chemosynthesis
The gravitational interaction of Earth and the Moon is responsible for which of these?
tides
Tides are caused by the gravitational interaction of Earth and the Moon.
The Rh factor antigen in blood determines:
postive or negative
Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.
The __________ converts pressure on the brake pedal to hydraulic pressure in the brake lines.
master cylinder
The master (brake) cylinder converts pressure on the brake pedal to hydraulic pressure in the brake lines.
The ignition coil is a(n):
step-up transformer
The ignition coil steps up the 12 volts available from the battery or alternator to a voltage of 30,000 or more volts at the spark plug. Converting a lower voltage input into a higher voltage output makes the ignition coil a step-up transformer.
Which of the following states of matter exists at the highest temperature?
gas
Solids exist at a lower temperature than liquids which exist at a lower temperature than gases.
Solve 2 + (5 + 2) ÷ 5 x 3 - 42
Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):
2 + (5 + 2) ÷ 5 x 3 - 42
P: 2 + (7) ÷ 5 x 3 - 42
E: 2 + 7 ÷ 5 x 3 - 16
MD: 2 + \( \frac{7}{5} \) x 3 - 16
MD: 2 + \( \frac{21}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{10}{5} \) + \( \frac{21}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{31}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{31 - 80}{5} \)
\( \frac{-49}{5} \)
-9\(\frac{4}{5}\)
