Sample Practice Test Questions
Control arms connect a vehicle's suspension to the frame. The connection to the frame uses:
bushings
Control arms (upper and lower) connect a vehicle's suspension to the frame. The connection to the wheels is through ball joints which allow the control arms to turn and move up and down simultaneously. The frame connection uses bushings.
If side x = 12cm, side y = 9cm, and side z = 9cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:
p = x + y + z
p = 12cm + 9cm + 9cm = 30cm
The mass of an object correlates to the size of the object but ultimately depends on:
the object's density
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. In general, larger objects have larger mass than smaller objects but mass ultimately depends on how compact (dense) a substance is.
Which of the following is the correct order for types of radiation from lowest to highest frequency?
radio waves → visible light → gamma rays
The electromagnetic spectrum covers all possible wavelengths and frequencies of radiation. From lowest frequency (longest wavelength) to highest frequency (shortest wavelength) radiation: radio waves → microwaves → infrared waves → visible light → ultraviolet light → X-rays → gamma rays.
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.
In cell biology, what part of the cell contains organelles?
cytoplasm
The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles.
Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?
binomial
A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.
Simplify (5a)(2ab) - (9a2)(3b).
To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.
(5a)(2ab) - (9a2)(3b)
(5 x 2)(a x a x b) - (9 x 3)(a2 x b)
(10)(a1+1 x b) - (27)(a2b)
10a2b - 27a2b
-17a2b
