Sample Practice Test Questions

Mechanical Comprehension

The mechanical advantage of a third class lever is always:

less than one

A third class lever is designed to multiply distance and speed at the expense of effort force. Because the effort force is greater than the resistance, the mechanical advantage of a third class lever is always less than one.

An example of a third class lever is a broom. The fulcrum is at your hand on the end of the broom, the effort force is your other hand in the middle, and the resistance is at the bottom bristles. The effort force of your hand in the middle multiplies the distance and speed of the bristles at the bottom but at the expense of producing a brushing force that's less than the force you're applying with your hand.

Math Knowledge

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

Odd

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses.

Electronics Information

Resistance and current are __________ proportional.

inversely

Resistance is opposition to the flow of current and is measured in ohms (Ω). One ohm is defined as the amount of resistance that will allow one ampere of current to flow if one volt of voltage is applied. As resistance increases, current decreases as resistance and current are inversely proportional.

Mechanical Comprehension
15 ft. If the green box weighs 25 lbs. and 75 lbs. of force is applied 5 ft. from the fulcrum at the blue arrow, how far from the fulcrum would the green box need to be placed to balance the lever?
15 ft.

To balance this lever the torques at the green box and the blue arrow must be equal. Torque is weight x distance from the fulcrum so the equation for equilibrium is:

Rada = Rbdb

where a represents the green box and b the blue arrow, R is resistance (weight/force) and d is the distance from the fulcrum.

Solving for da, our missing value, and plugging in our variables yields:

da = \( \frac{R_bd_b}{R_a} \) = \( \frac{75 lbs. \times 5 ft.}{25 lbs.} \) = \( \frac{375 ft⋅lb}{25 lbs.} \) = 15 ft.

General Science

An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of __________ animals, including humans.

vertebrate

An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of vertebrate animals, including humans.

Arithmetic Reasoning

This property states taht the order of addition or multiplication does not mater. For example, 2 + 5 and 5 + 2 are equivalent.

commutative

The commutative property states that, when adding or multiplying numbers, the order in which they're added or multiplied does not matter. For example, 3 + 4 and 4 + 3 give the same result, as do 3 x 4 and 4 x 3.

Arithmetic Reasoning

What is -z2 + 5z2?

4z2

To add or subtract terms with exponents, both the base and the exponent must be the same. In this case they are so add the coefficients and retain the base and exponent:

-1z2 + 5z2
(-1 + 5)z2
4z2

Electronics Information

Inductance is a factor in which of the following?

an AC circuit

Inductance is a property of an AC circuit (or a component in an AC circuit) that quantifies resistance to changes in current. The current in an AC circuit is continuously changing and inductive reactance (the opposition to change) depends both on the inductance of the circuit or component and the rate at which the current is changing.

General Science

Which of the following would you find in the side view mirror of a car?

convex mirror

A concave (or converging) mirror bulges inward and focuses reflected light on the mirror's focal point where the mirror's angles of incidence converge. In contrast, a convex (or diverging) mirror bulges outward and diffuses the light waves that strike it. A common use of a concave mirror is in a reflecting telescope, a common use of a convex mirror is in the side view mirror of a car.

Mechanical Comprehension

Two gears are connected and the smaller gear drives the larger gear. The speed of rotation will __________ and the torque will __________.

decrease, increase

Connected gears of different numbers of teeth are used together to change the rotational speed and torque of the input force. If the smaller gear drives the larger gear, the speed of rotation will be reduced and the torque will increase. If the larger gear drives the smaller gear, the speed of rotation will increase and the torque will be reduced.
