Sample Practice Test Questions

Mechanical Comprehension

The mechanical advantage of a third class lever is always:

less than one

A third class lever is designed to multiply distance and speed at the expense of effort force. Because the effort force is greater than the resistance, the mechanical advantage of a third class lever is always less than one.

An example of a third class lever is a broom. The fulcrum is at your hand on the end of the broom, the effort force is your other hand in the middle, and the resistance is at the bottom bristles. The effort force of your hand in the middle multiplies the distance and speed of the bristles at the bottom but at the expense of producing a brushing force that's less than the force you're applying with your hand.

Word Knowledge
Grandiose most nearly means:
pretentious
With an affectation of grandeur.
General Science

In the heart, blood flows from the right __________ to the lungs then back to the heart via the left __________.

ventricle, atrium

The two largest veins in the body, the venae cavae, pass blood to the right ventricle which pumps the blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. Blood picks up oxygen in the lungs and returns it to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein.

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.

Automotive Information

Opposed cylinder designs feature two rows of cylinders that are placed at what angle to each other?

180°

Opposed cylinder designs place cylinders flat in two rows 180° opposite each other with a single crankshaft running between them.

General Science

Large, puffy, mid-altitude clouds with a flat base and a rounded top describe which of the following?

cumulus clouds

Cumulus clouds are large, puffy, mid-altitude clouds with a flat base and a rounded top. These clouds grow upward and can develop into a cumulonimbus or thunderstorm cloud.

Mechanical Comprehension
If input effort is 700 ft⋅lb, what output effort will be produced by a machine with a mechanical advantage of 5?
3500 ft⋅lb
Mechanical advantage is the ratio of output force to input force and tells us by how many times a machine multiplies input effort. So, a machine with a mechanical advantage of 5 will multiply an input effort of 700 ft⋅lb by 5 to produce an output effort of 3500 ft⋅lb.
Electronics Information
How would you connect 8 [9V 15A] batteries to achieve a combined power output of 9V 120A?
parallel

Connecting the 8 batteries in series multiplies their voltage while keeping their current the same yielding a 72V 15A configuration. Connecting the 8 batteries in parallel multiplies their current while keeping their voltage the same yieleding a 9V 120A configuration. Using a series-parallel connection, 4 batteries can be connected in series and 4 can be connected in parallel resulting in a 36V 60A configuration.

Arithmetic Reasoning

What is the least common multiple of 6 and 12?

12

The first few multiples of 6 are [6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60] and the first few multiples of 12 are [12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96]. The first few multiples they share are [12, 24, 36, 48, 60] making 12 the smallest multiple 6 and 12 have in common.

Shop Information

Which of the following would be used to make a drilling guide mark in a sheet of metal?

center punch

A punch is narrow and is used to drive objects like nails (pin punch) or for making guide marks for drilling (center punch) or patterns in wood or metal.
