Sample Practice Test Questions

General Science

The ozone layer is in which of Earth's atmospheric layers?

stratosphere

The stratosphere is just above the troposphere and is stratified in temperature with warmer layers higher and cooler layers closer to Earth. This increase in temperature is a result of absorption of the Sun's radiation by the ozone layer.

Math Knowledge

Solve for a:
a2 + 6a - 13 = -a + 5

2 or -9

The first step to solve a quadratic expression that's not set to zero is to solve the equation so that it is set to zero:

a2 + 6a - 13 = -a + 5
a2 + 6a - 13 - 5 = -a
a2 + 6a + a - 18 = 0
a2 + 7a - 18 = 0

Next, factor the quadratic equation:

a2 + 7a - 18 = 0
(a - 2)(a + 9) = 0

For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (a - 2) or (a + 9) must equal zero:

If (a - 2) = 0, a must equal 2
If (a + 9) = 0, a must equal -9

So the solution is that a = 2 or -9

Electronics Information

Which of the following statements about a capacitor is false?

it is safe to touch a capacitor with your hands as long as it is small

The purpose of a capacitor is to retain electric charge and it will do so even after its input voltage is removed. After the input voltage is removed, the capacitor will slowly discharge but, depending on the size and characteristics of the capacitor, discharging could take from a few minutes to a few years. So, it's never safe to touch a capacitor with your hands and you should make sure to discharge any capacitors in a circuit before working on it using an appropriately high-wattage resistor or a capacitor discharge tool.

Word Knowledge
Flourish most nearly means:
brandish
To make bold, sweeping gestures.
Shop Information

This tool is a(n) __________.

punch

A punch is narrow and is used to drive objects like nails (pin punch) or for making guide marks for drilling (center punch) or patterns in wood or metal.

Math Knowledge

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

4

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.

Mechanical Comprehension

The principle of conservation of mechanical energy states that, as long as no other forces are applied, what will remain constant as an object falls?

total mechanical energy

As an object falls, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. The principle of conservation of mechanical energy states that, as long as no other forces are applied, total mechanical energy (PE + KE) of the object will remain constant at all points in its descent.

General Science

Which of the following represents the largest value?

1 ML

Mega (M) is 106, kilo (k) is 103, centi (c) is 10-2, milli (m) is 10-3 so 1 ML represents the largest value.

Automotive Information

A __________ is a drive axle that extends from a transaxle or differential to one of the drive wheels.

half shaft

A half shaft is a drive axle that extends from a transaxle or differential to one of the drive wheels. There are two half shafts per drive axle, one for each wheel, each doing "half" the job.

Word Knowledge
Unscrupulous most nearly means:
corrupt
Lacking principles.
