Sample Practice Test Questions

General Science

In the metric system, what prefix represents 103?

kilo

Kilo is the metric system prefix for 103.

Word Knowledge
Authoritarian most nearly means:
strict
Favoring absolute obedience to authority.
Mechanical Comprehension

Which of the following is not a type of bridge?

block

The six basic bridge forms are beam, truss, arch, cantilever, cable, and suspension.

Word Knowledge
Futile most nearly means:
hopeless
Without purpose, completely ineffective.
Math Knowledge
\( \sqrt{80} \)

If side a = 8, side b = 4, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

\( \sqrt{80} \)

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 82 + 42
c2 = 64 + 16
c2 = 80
c = \( \sqrt{80} \)

Word Knowledge
The turpitude of the villain in the movie offended most audiences.
corruption
Essential baseness, depravity.
Automotive Information

Which of the following is not a characteristic of disc brakes?

uses brake shoes

Both drum brake and disc brake assemblies use friction to stop a car's wheels from turning but each do it in a slightly different way. A drum brake assembly uses a large iron drum attached to the wheel and brake shoes that press against the drum to slow the rotation of the drum and, consequently, the wheel. A disc brake assembly employs friction in the same way as a drum brake but instead uses a rotor, also attached to the wheel, and two brake pads that squeeze against the surface of the rotor.

Mechanical Comprehension

A wedge is most similar to what other type of simple machine?

inclined plane

The wedge is a moving inclined plane that is used to lift, hold, or break apart an object. A wedge converts force applied to its blunt end into force perpendicular to its inclined surface. In contrast to a stationary plane where force is applied to the object being moved, with a wedge the object is stationary and the force is being applied to the plane. Examples of a wedge include knives and chisels.

Automotive Information

Which of the following is not part of an engine's cooling system?

air conditioner

The purpose of an automobile engine's cooling system is to circulate coolant around the engine so it can absorb and dissipate heat. The water pump pumps coolant through the various components in the system and the radiator cools down coolant after it has heated up after passing through the engine. The thermostat controls the flow of coolant based on engine temperature while the cooling fan draws air through the radiator when the car isn't moving fast enough for unforced air to cool things down on its own.

General Science

Earth's troposphere layer is which of the following?

closest to the surface

The Earth's atmosphere has several layers starting with the troposphere which is closest in proximity to the surface. Containing most of the Earth's breathable air (oxygen and nitrogen), it's a region with warmer temperatures closer to the surface and cooler temperatures farther away which results in the rising and falling air that generates weather.
