Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge
Veronique found that listening to French music was an antidote for her homesickness.
cure
Something that relieves or counteracts.
Mechanical Comprehension

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

increase, decrease

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.

Mechanical Comprehension

Which class of lever is used to increase force on an object in the same direction as the force is applied?

second

A second-class lever is used to increase force on an object in the same direction as the force is applied. This lever requires a smaller force to lift a larger load but the force must be applied over a greater distance. The fulcrum is placed at one end of the lever and mechanical advantage increases as the object being lifted is moved closer to the fulcrum or the length of the lever is increased. An example of a second-class lever is a wheelbarrow.

Mechanical Comprehension

Potential energy is energy that has the potential to be converted into what?

 kinetic energy

Potential energy is the energy of an object by virtue of its position relative to other objects. It is energy that has the potential to be converted into kinetic energy.

Mechanical Comprehension
26.67 lbs. If the green box weighs 30 lbs. and is 8 ft. from the fulcrum, how much force would need to be applied at the blue arrow to balance the lever if the arrow's distance from the fulcrum is 9 ft.?
26.67 lbs.

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 Rb, our missing value, and plugging in our variables yields:

Rb = \( \frac{R_ad_a}{d_b} \) = \( \frac{30 lbs. \times 8 ft.}{9 ft.} \) = \( \frac{240 ft⋅lb}{9 ft.} \) = 26.67 lbs.

General Science

Which of the following is not a medium for sound waves?

vacuum

A vibrating object produces a sound wave that travels outwardly from the object through a medium (any liquid or solid matter). The vibration disturbs the particles in the surrounding medium, those particles disturb the particules next to them, and so on, as the sound propagates away from the vibration.

Math Knowledge

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 2?

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(22)
a = 4π

Shop Information

Which of the following types of saws would you use if you needed to cut the wood quickly and weren't concerned with leaving rough edges?

rip saw

Wood saws are categorized primarily by their teeth. Crosscut saws utilize knife-shaped teeth that cut across the grain of the wood while rip saws cut with the grain using chisel-shaped teeth that rip the wood cells apart as the cut is made. The kerf (slot) made by by a crosscut saw is much smoother than that made by a rip saw but a rip saw cuts much faster. Coping saws are a type of bow saw used to make detailed often curving cuts using replaceable blades with fine small teeth.

General Science

In the classification of life, bacteria, archaea and eukaryota are which of the following?

domains

The broadest classification of life splits all organisms into three groups called domains. The three domains of life are bacteria, archaea and eukaryota.

General Science

During digestion, the kidneys filter substances from the blood. Which of the following is not filtered by the kidneys?

fats

Chemical waste like excess water, minerals, and salt are filtered from the blood by the kidneys and secreted into the urine. Urine is transported from the kidneys to the bladder through ureters.
