Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge
The words to the song are elusive, as the singer tends to mumble.
evasive
Hard to grasp.
General Science

Which of the following is not a base unit in the metric system?

degree Fahrenheit

The Fahrenheit scale is used for measuring temperature in the British system. The metric system uses the Celsius scale.

Automotive Information

Another name for a reciprocating engine is a(n):

piston engine

A reciprocating engine is an engine whose crankshaft is turned by pistons moving up and down in a cylinder.

Automotive Information

Both intake and exhaust valves are closed as the piston begins moving back up from the bottom of the cylinder, compressing the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber which also makes it hotter. This describes which engine stroke?

compression

During the compression stroke, both intake and exhaust valves are closed as the piston begins moving back up from the bottom of the cylinder (bottom dead center or BDC). This compresses the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber which also makes it hotter.

Math Knowledge
30cm

If side x = 12cm, side y = 9cm, and side z = 9cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

30cm

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 12cm + 9cm + 9cm = 30cm

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.

Electronics Information

Which of the following is a characteristic of batteries connected in series?

total voltage equals the sum of the individual battery voltages

You can multiply the voltage or the current supplied by individual batteries by connecting them together either in series or in parallel. The characteristics of batteries connected in series are that total voltage equals the sum of the individual battery voltages, total current equals the average of the individual battery currents, the positive terminal of one battery is connected to the negative terminal of the next, and one connection is made between each adjacent battery.

Electronics Information

An inductor __________ changes in the electric current flowing through it.

resists

An inductor is coiled wire that stores electric energy in the form of magnetic energy and resists changes in the electric current flowing through it. If current is increasing, the inductor produces a voltage that slows the increase and, if current is decreasing, the magnetic energy in the coil opposes the decrease to keep the current flowing longer. In contrast to capacitors, inductors allow DC to pass easily but resist the flow of AC.

Automotive Information

Cylinder air and fuel intake valves, exhaust valves, and mounts for spark plugs and fuel injectors are contained in the:

head gasket

Cylinders act as a guide for the pistons that translate the heat energy of combustion into the mechanical energy necessary to move a vehicle. Piston rings seal the piston to the cylinder to contain combustion gases and also regulate the oil distribution between the piston and cylinder wall. A cylinder head closes in the top of the cylinder forming the combustion chamber which is sealed by a head gasket (head). The head provides space for air and fuel intake valves, exhaust valves, and mounts for spark plugs and fuel injectors.

General Science

The fossil record is a product of which period of Earth's history?

Cambrian

The Cambrian period is one of the most significant geological time periods. Lasting about 53 million years, it marked a dramatic burst of changes in life on Earth known as the Cambrian Explosion. It is from this period that the majority of the history of life on Earth, as documented by fossils, is found. Called the fossil record, the layering of these mineralized imprints of organisms preserved in sedementary rock have allowed geologists to build a historical record of plant and animal life on Earth.
