Sample Practice Test Questions

General Science

"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?

third

Newton's third law of motion states that For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When an object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts a force of equal magnitude in the opposite direction on the first object.

Word Knowledge
The introduction to the complex novel was, thankfully, written in clear accessible language.
approachable
Easy to reach or to approach.
General Science

Antigens in the blood determine:

blood type

Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.

Automotive Information

What's the name of the high-voltage winding in the ignition coil?

secondary coil winding

The ignition coil is a high-voltage transformer made up of two coils of wire. The primary coil winding is the low-voltage winding and has relatively few turns of heavy wire. The secondary coil winding is the high-voltage winding that surrounds the primary and is made up of thousands of turns of fine wire. Current flows from the battery through the primary coil winding which creates a changing magnetic field inside the secondary coil. This induces a very high-voltage current in the secondary coil which it feeds to the distributor.

General Science

Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue that connect muscles to the skeleton are called:

tendons

Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue called tendons connect muscles to the skeleton while another type of connective tissue called ligaments connect bones to other bones at joints (elbow, knee, fingers, spinal column).

General Science

Which of the following is the narrowest classification of life?

species

The narrowest classification of life, species, contains organisms that are so similar that they can only reproduce with others of the same species.

Mechanical Comprehension
If the handles of a wheelbarrow are 2.5 ft. from the wheel axle and the load is concentrated at a point 1.0 ft. from the axle, how many pounds of load will a 130 lbs. force lift?
325
This problem describes a second-class lever and, for a second class lever, the effort force multiplied by the effort distance equals the resistance force multipied by the resistance distance: Fede = Frdr. In this problem we're looking for resistance force:
\( F_r = \frac{F_e d_e}{d_r} \)
\( F_r = \frac{130 \times 2.5}{1.0} \)
\( F_r = \frac{325.0}{1.0} \)
\( F_r = 325 \)
Math Knowledge
y = -2x - 2

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 2) and (2, -6). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

y = -2x - 2

The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is -2. The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 2) and (2, -6) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-6.0) - (2.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-8}{4} \)
m = -2

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = -2x - 2

Automotive Information

The ignition coil is a(n):

step-up transformer

The ignition coil steps up the 12 volts available from the battery or alternator to a voltage of 30,000 or more volts at the spark plug. Converting a lower voltage input into a higher voltage output makes the ignition coil a step-up transformer.

Electronics Information

Which of the following will increase the magnetic field produced by the electric current in a wire?

wind the wire into a coil

A moving electric current produces a magnetic field proportional to the amount of current flow. This magnetic field can be made stronger by winding the wire into a coil and further enhanced if done around an iron containing (ferrous) core.
