Sample Practice Test Questions

Mechanical Comprehension

The measure of how much of the power put into a machine is turned into movement or force is called:

efficiency

The efficiency of a machine describes how much of the power put into the machine is turned into movement or force. A 100% efficient machine would turn all of the input power into output movement or force. However, no machine is 100% efficient due to friction, heat, wear and other imperfections that consume input power without delivering any output.

Automotive Information

The combustion chamber is enclosed by the:

cylinder head

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.

Electronics Information

Which of the following is a difference between a circuit breaker and a fuse?

all of these

Like fuses, circuit breakers stop current flow once it reaches a certain amount. They have the advantage of being reusable (fuses must be replaced when "blown") but respond more slowly to current surges and are more expensive than fuses.

General Science

An element in the physical state of __________ maintains neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.

gas

The gaseous state occurs at a higher temperature range than the solid and liquid states of the same substance. In this state, molecules flow very freely around each other and will spread out as far as they're able. Gases maintain neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.

Word Knowledge
Induce most nearly means:
incite
To influence or cause.
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.

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.

Automotive Information

Which of the following is a relay that connects the battery to the starter motor when the ignition key is turned?

solenoid

The cylindrical solenoid is a relay that safely connects the high amperage battery to the starter motor when the ignition key is turned. This current then allows the engine to turn at a high enough speed to start.

General Science

During the water cycle, water enters the atmosphere as a gas through which process?

transpiration

The water (hydrologic) cycle describes the movement of water from Earth through the atmosphere and back to Earth. The cycle starts when water evaporates into a gas from bodies of water like rivers, lakes and oceans or transpirates from the leaves of plants.

General Science

During digestion, after proteins are broken down where does the undigested food go next?

small intestine

Food is mixed with gastric acid and pepsin in the stomach to help break down protein.
