Which of the following statements about an inline cylinder configuration is false?
works well in eight cylinder engines
An inline cylinder configuration places the cylinders in a single row either completely vertical or slanted. Due to this arrangement, an inline cylinder configuration makes the engine longer and, although it works well in four cylinder engines, performace suffers in larger engines due to the difficulty in evenly distributing the air-fuel mixture over the length of the engine.
Screwdrivers are most broadly classified by their:
tip
Screwdrivers come in many different handle, shaft, and tip configurations for use in a wide variety of applications. Screwdrivers are classified by their tip which is shaped to fit a corresponding screw head. Common tips are slotted (flat) and Phillips (x-shaped).
__________ is caused by a lack of Vitamin C.
scurvy
Scurvy is a difficiency disease caused by a lack of Vitamin C in the diet.
If A = 10 ft., B = 1 ft., C = 9 ft., the green box weighs 50 lbs. and the blue box weighs 60 lbs., what does the orange box have to weigh for this lever to balance?
fAdA = fBdB + fCdC
For this problem, this equation becomes:
50 lbs. x 10 ft. = 60 lbs. x 1 ft. + fC x 9 ft.
500 ft. lbs. = 60 ft. lbs. + fC x 9 ft.
fC = \( \frac{500 ft. lbs. - 60 ft. lbs.}{9 ft.} \) = \( \frac{440 ft. lbs.}{9 ft.} \) = 48.89 lbs.
What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 7, 13, 19, 25, __________ ?
The equation for this sequence is:
an = an-1 + 6
where n is the term's order in the sequence, an is the value of the term, and an-1 is the value of the term before an. This makes the next number:
a6 = a5 + 6
a6 = 25 + 6
a6 = 31
A human heart consists of how many chambers?
4
The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.
Which of the following is a characteristic of batteries connected in series?
total voltage equals the sum of the individual battery voltages
You can multiply the voltage or the current supplied by individual batteries by connecting them together either in series or in parallel. The characteristics of batteries connected in series are that total voltage equals the sum of the individual battery voltages, total current equals the average of the individual battery currents, the positive terminal of one battery is connected to the negative terminal of the next, and one connection is made between each adjacent battery.
