Which of these saws is used with a miter box?
back saw |

|
rip saw |

Which of the following statements about welding is not true?
welding is done at higher temperatures than soldering |
|
electric-arc welding is safer than oxyacetylene welding |
|
no filler metal is required when welding |
|
a weld can often be stronger than the base materials alone |
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.
This tool is a(n) __________.
micrometer |
|
outside caliper |
|
vernier caliper |
|
inside caliper |
Calipers are similar to micrometers in shape but instead of measuring distances, calipers are used to transfer distances between objects. An outside caliper is used to transfer outside dimensions while an inside caliper is used to transfer inside distances. A vernier caliper is an extremely precise caliper (down to \({1 \over 1000}\) inch) that allows measuring / transferring either inside or outside dimensions.

You're replacing the hubcaps on a car. Which of the following are you most likely to use?
ball-peen hammer |
|
rubber mallet |
|
claw hammer |

wooden mallet |
A mallet is a hammer with a relatively large head, often made of rubber or wood. Both the size and material of the mallet head help prevent damage when striking more delicate surfaces.
