Which of the following does not represent the freezing point of water?
0°F
The Fahrenheit scale fixes the freezing point of water at 32°F, the Celsuis scale at 0°C, and the Kelvin scale at 273K.
212°F is how many °C?
100
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (212 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (180) = {{180 \times 5} \over 9}\)
\(C° = {900 \over 9}\)
\(C° = 100\)
If A = 10 ft., B = 1 ft., C = 9 ft., the green box weighs 50 lbs. and the blue box weighs 60 lbs., what does the orange box have to weigh for this lever to balance?
fAdA = fBdB + fCdC
For this problem, this equation becomes:
50 lbs. x 10 ft. = 60 lbs. x 1 ft. + fC x 9 ft.
500 ft. lbs. = 60 ft. lbs. + fC x 9 ft.
fC = \( \frac{500 ft. lbs. - 60 ft. lbs.}{9 ft.} \) = \( \frac{440 ft. lbs.}{9 ft.} \) = 48.89 lbs.
The voltage output of a transformer primarily depends on which of the following?
the number of turns in the wire of the coils
A transformer utilizes an inductor to increase or decrease the voltage in a circuit. AC flowing in a coil wrapped around an iron core magnetizes the core causing it to produce a magnetic field. This magnetic field generates a voltage in a nearby coil of wire and, depending on the number of turns in the wire of the primary (source) and secondary coils and their proximity, voltage is induced in the secondary coil.
Which of the following is not a component in the engine lubrication system?
differential
In engine lubrication, oil remains in the oil pan until the engine is turned on. It then gets sucked up the pickup tube by the oil pump and pressurized. This pressure is moderated by the pressure relief valve and the oil is fed through the oil filter into the engine to lubricate it.
You are using a hacksaw to cut a Class 8 bolt. What is the most appropriate TPI for your saw blade?
18 TPI
A Class 8 bolt is made of very hard metal and larger TPI saw blades are most appropriate for very hard metals.
