Sample Practice Test Questions

Math Knowledge
12

If a = c = 4, b = d = 3, what is the area of this rectangle?

12

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 4 x 3
a = 12

Shop Information

Which of the following is not an advantage of using a tape measure over using a ruler?

measure with more accuracy

Rulers are used to both measure distance and to draw straight lines. Tape measures are flexible rulers useful for measuring longer distances and in tighter spaces. Rulers and tape measures provide similarly accurate measurements.

General Science

Which of the following states of matter exists at the lowest temperature?

solid

Solids exist at a lower temperature than liquids which exist at a lower temperature than gases.

Mechanical Comprehension

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.

Word Knowledge
Archaic most nearly means:
antiquated
Characteristic of an earlier time.
Mechanical Comprehension
3.13 ft. A = 5 ft., the green box weighs 50 lbs., and the blue box weighs 80 lbs. What does distance B need to be for this lever to balance?
3.13 ft.
In order for this lever to balance, the torque acting on side A must equal the torque acting on side B. Torque is weight x distance from the fulcrum which means that the following must be true for the lever to balance:

fAdA = fBdB

For this problem, the equation becomes:

50 lbs. x 5 ft. = 80 lbs. x dB

dB = \( \frac{50 \times 5 ft⋅lb}{80 lbs.} \) = \( \frac{250 ft⋅lb}{80 lbs.} \) = 3.13 ft.

Word Knowledge
Beneficial most nearly means:
advantageous
Helpful.
Mechanical Comprehension

Which of the following statements about drag is false?

slower objects experience more drag than faster objects

Drag is friction that opposes movement through a fluid like liquid or air. The amount of drag depends on the shape and speed of the object with slower objects experiencing less drag than faster objects and more aerodynamic objects experiencing less drag than those with a large leading surface area.

General Science

Work is measured in:

joules or newton-meters

Work is performed on an object when an applied force causes displacement along the same vector. Measured in joules (J) or newton-meters (Nm), work is calculated by multiplying force times displacement:  \(W = \vec{F}\vec{d}\)

Arithmetic Reasoning

How many 2\(\frac{1}{2}\) gallon cans worth of fuel would you need to pour into an empty 20 gallon tank to fill it exactly halfway?

4

To fill a 20 gallon tank exactly halfway you'll need 10 gallons of fuel. Each fuel can holds 2\(\frac{1}{2}\) gallons so:

cans = \( \frac{10 \text{ gallons}}{2\frac{1}{2} \text{ gallons}} \) = 4
