Sample Practice Test Questions
The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 5, length (l) = 1, and width (w) = 4. What is the volume?
The volume of a cube is height x length x width:
v = h x l x w
v = 5 x 1 x 4
v = 20
The distributor is responsible for:
timing the spark and distributing it to the correct cylinder
The distributor is driven by the engine's camshaft and is responsible for timing the spark and distributing it to the correct cylinder. The distributor cap contains a rotor that connects the ignition coil (and its high voltage) to the proper cylinder at the proper point in the stroke cycle.
Which of the following cylinder arrangement would be most common in an eight cylinder engine?
V-type
Cylinder number and arrangement depends on the purpose of the engine. Smaller (four and six cylinder) engines in front-wheel drive vehicles often use an inline design which orients cylinders vertically over the crankshaft and aligns them in a row. Other common orientations are a horizontal/opposed design which places cylinders flat facing each other with the crankshaft between them and a V-type design common in six and eight cylinder engines that features one cylinder head per block of cylinders oriented at a 60 to 90 degree angle to each other with the crankshaft at the bottom of the V.
Boyle's law defines the relationship between pressure and volume as:
\(\frac{P_1}{P_2} = \frac{V_2}{V_1}\)
Boyle's law states that "for a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional". Expressed as a formula, that's \(\frac{P_1}{P_2} = \frac{V_2}{V_1}\)
The __________ is the greatest factor that divides two integers.
greatest common factor
The greatest common factor (GCF) is the greatest factor that divides two integers.
Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?
the lengths of all sides are equal
A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).
In cell biology, cytokinesis results in two separate:
cells
During cell division, the cytokinesis phase occurs when cytoplasm and cell membranes complete their separation resulting in two separate cells.
An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of __________ animals, including humans.
vertebrate
An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of vertebrate animals, including humans.
