Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge
The frugal shopper only bought items that were on sale.
sparing
Thrifty, cheap.
Shop Information

You need to loosen a bolt in a hard to reach location. Which of the following wrenches would best suit this task?

box-end

Wrenches are used to provide grip and mechanical advantage by applying torque to turn objects (or to keep them from turning). The longer the wrench, the more torque that can be applied. Wrench ends are available in two primary types, open-end and box-end. A box-end wrench encloses the bolt head and is useful when more torque is needed or to maintain contact in difficult to reach locations. An open-end wrench is designed for speedily loosening easier to reach fasteners. Wrenches that feature one open and one box end are called combination wrenches and adjustable wrenches feature an open end with an adjustable width.

Mechanical Comprehension
26.32 lbs. The radius of the axle is 3, the radius of the wheel is 4, and the blue box weighs 35 lbs. What is the effort force necessary to balance the load?
26.32 lbs.

The mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is the input radius divided by the output radius:

MA = \( \frac{r_i}{r_o} \)

In this case, the input radius (where the effort force is being applied) is 4 and the output radius (where the resistance is being applied) is 3 for a mechanical advantage of \( \frac{4}{3} \) = 1.33

MA = \( \frac{load}{effort} \) so effort = \( \frac{load}{MA} \) = \( \frac{35 lbs.}{1.33} \) = 26.32 lbs.

Math Knowledge
12

If a = c = 4, b = d = 3, what is the area of this rectangle?

12

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 4 x 3
a = 12

General Science

Changes to an object's speed or direction of motion are caused by which of the following?

a force

Force is applied to change an object's speed or direction of motion.

Mechanical Comprehension

A wedge is most similar to what other type of simple machine?

inclined plane

The wedge is a moving inclined plane that is used to lift, hold, or break apart an object. A wedge converts force applied to its blunt end into force perpendicular to its inclined surface. In contrast to a stationary plane where force is applied to the object being moved, with a wedge the object is stationary and the force is being applied to the plane. Examples of a wedge include knives and chisels.

Electronics Information

Which of the following is not a purpose of a resistor in an electrical circuit?

multiply the current in the circuit

Resistors can be chosen in a wide variety of values to control the voltage in a circuit, limit the current, or moderate the heat produced by the components in the circuit.

General Science

As part of digestion, the liver produces bile which breaks down:

fat

The liver produces bile which emulsifies (separates) fat.

Word Knowledge
Pretentious most nearly means:
pompous
Making unjustified claims.
Shop Information

Which of the following would be used to make a drilling guide mark in a sheet of metal?

center 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.
