Sample Practice Test Questions

Word Knowledge
Liability most nearly means:
handicap
A person or thing whose presence or behavior is likely to cause embarrassment or put one at a disadvantage.
Mechanical Comprehension
26.32 lbs. The radius of the axle is 3, the radius of the wheel is 4, and the blue box weighs 35 lbs. What is the effort force necessary to balance the load?
26.32 lbs.

The mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is the input radius divided by the output radius:

MA = \( \frac{r_i}{r_o} \)

In this case, the input radius (where the effort force is being applied) is 4 and the output radius (where the resistance is being applied) is 3 for a mechanical advantage of \( \frac{4}{3} \) = 1.33

MA = \( \frac{load}{effort} \) so effort = \( \frac{load}{MA} \) = \( \frac{35 lbs.}{1.33} \) = 26.32 lbs.

Word Knowledge
Allison's painting met with plaudits from the critics, who had dismissed her earlier work.
kudos
Enthusiastic approval.
General Science

In the food chain, bacteria and fungi convert the organic matter in the dead bodies of plants and animals into simple nutrients. Bacteria and fungi are:

decomposers

Decomposers (saprotrophs) are organisms such as bacteria and fungi that break down the organic matter in the dead bodies of plants and animals into simple nutrients.

General Science

What part of the brain is responsible for for balance, movement, and muscle coordination?

cerebellum

The cerebellum is a large cluster of nerves at the base of the brain that's responsible for balance, movement, and muscle coordination.

Arithmetic Reasoning

a(b + c) = ab + ac defines which of the following?

distributive property for multiplication

The distributive property for multiplication helps in solving expressions like a(b + c). It specifies that the result of multiplying one number by the sum or difference of two numbers can be obtained by multiplying each number individually and then totaling the results: a(b + c) = ab + ac. For example, 4(10-5) = (4 x 10) - (4 x 5) = 40 - 20 = 20.

Arithmetic Reasoning

Find the average of the following numbers: 17, 13, 17, 13.

15

To find the average of these 4 numbers add them together then divide by 4:

\( \frac{17 + 13 + 17 + 13}{4} \) = \( \frac{60}{4} \) = 15

Math Knowledge
19

If a = 4, b = 2, c = 9, and d = 4, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

19

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 4 + 2 + 9 + 4
p = 19

Word Knowledge
Absolve most nearly means:
exculpate
To forgive; to free from guilt.
General Science

Which of these layers is found directly below the Earth's crust?

mantle

The crust is the Earth's outermost layer and is divided into oceanic and continental types. Oceanic crust is 3 miles (5 km) to 6 miles (10 km) thick and is composed primarily of denser rock. Continental crust is 20 to 30 miles (30 to 50 km) thick and composed primarily of less dense rock. The crust makes up approximately one percent of the Earth's total volume.
