51% Answer Correctly

electric drills utilize a chuck to hold the drill bit

a chuck's size indicates the largest diameter drill bit that will fit

a chuck's size indicates the largest circumference drill bit that will fit

a chuck is tightened and loosened using a chuck key


Solution

Electric drills utilize a chuck to hold the drill bit. A chuck's size indicates the largest diameter drill bit that will fit. A chuck is tightened and loosened using a chuck key.

An arc-welder creates heat using:

70% Answer Correctly

propane

oxyacetylene

natural gas

high voltage electricity


Solution

Welding is a high-temperature process that involves melting the base metals in the objects to be joined to fuse them together. A filler metal is used to provide additional material to make up a joint that, depending on the weld type, can be stronger than the base materials alone. Oxyacetylene welding is a welding process that uses a torch fueled with oxygen and acetylene gases. Electric-arc welding utlizes electric current in a safer welding process (it doesn't involve burning explosive gases) that enables a wide variety of specialized applications like stick, MIG (metal inert gas), and TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding.

4

Which of the following is used in metal work for shaping metal?

67% Answer Correctly

rivet hammer

claw hammer

mallet

ball peen hammer


Solution

Ball peen hammers are most commonly used in automotive repair. They have rounded heads and are used to drive punches and chisels.


5

What is a micrometer used for?

75% Answer Correctly

measuring length around corners

measuring the diameter of cylindrical objects with high precision

ensuring that a surface is level

transferring dimensions between objects


Solution

Micrometers provide accuracy to the thousandths of an inch and come in outside and inside varieties. An outside micrometer is used to measure outside thickness, such as the diameter of a bolt, while an inside micrometer is used to measure the inside dimension of an object, such as the diameter of the hole of a nut or the width of a channel.
