Sample Practice Test Questions

General Science

During digestion, where is digested food absorbed into the blood stream?

small intestine

The small intestine is where most digestion takes place. As food travels along the small intestine it gets broken down completely by enzymes secreted from the walls. These enzymes are produced in the small intestine as well as in the pancreas and liver. After the enzymes break down the food, the resulting substances are then absorbed into the blood via capillaries in the small intestine walls.

Arithmetic Reasoning

How many hours does it take a car to travel 75 miles at an average speed of 25 miles per hour?

3 hours

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)

Solving for time:

time = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}} \)
time = \( \frac{75mi}{25mph} \)
3 hours

General Science

Which of these is a type of Earth's crust?

oceanic

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.

Electronics Information

What type of current flows in only one direction in a circuit?

direct

Direct current flows in only one direction in a circuit, from the negative terminal of the voltage source to the positive. A common source of direct current (DC) is a battery.

General Science

The crust and upper mantle of the earth is called the:

lithosphere

The biosphere is the global ecological system integrating all living beings and their relationships. This includes their interactions with the lithosphere (the rigid outer part of the earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle), hydrosphere (all surface water), and atmosphere (the envelope of gases surrounding the planet).

Automotive Information

Which of the following is not an advantage that disc brakes have over drum brakes?

use less brake fluid

Brakes utlize friction to slow vehicle tires. Drum brakes employ a cast iron drum that roates with the vehicle axle. When hydraulic pressure is applied to the brake assemblies at the wheels, internal pistons expand and push brake shoes outward into contact with the brake drum slowing the rotation of the axle. More powerful disc brakes operate by pinching a rotating disc betweeen two brake pads and allow for a larger surface area to contact the disc, provide more force, and are more easily cooled.

Math Knowledge
294

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 7, length (l) = 7, and width (w) = 7. What is the surface area?

294

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 7 x 7) + (2 x 7 x 7) + (2 x 7 x 7)
sa = (98) + (98) + (98)
sa = 294

Mechanical Comprehension
0.3 If this lever is in equilibrium with an effort force of 10.0 ft. lb. at the blue arrow and a resistance force of 3 ft. lb. at the green box, what is its mechanical advantage?
0.3

Mechanical advantage (MA) is the ratio by which effort force relates to resistance force. If both forces are known, calculating MA is simply a matter of dividing resistance force by effort force:

MA = \( \frac{F_r}{F_e} \) = \( \frac{3 ft.}{10.0 ft.} \) = 0.3

In this case, the mechanical advantage is less than one meaning that each unit of effort force results in just 0.3 units of resistance force. However, a third class lever like this isn't designed to multiply force like a first class lever. A third class lever is designed to multiply distance and speed at the resistance by sacrificing force at the resistance. Different lever styles have different purposes and multiply forces in different ways.

Mechanical Comprehension
What is the power output of a 9 hp engine that's 85% efficient?
4207.5 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \)
\( Efficiency = \frac{Power_{out}}{Power_{in}} \times 100 \)
Solving for power out: \( P_{o} = \frac{E \times P_{i}}{100} \)
Knowing that 1 hp = 550 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \), Pi becomes 9 hp x 550 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \) = 4950 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \)
\( P_{o} = \frac{E \times P_{i}}{100} = \frac{85 \times 4950 \frac{ft⋅lb}{s}}{100} \) \( = \frac{420750 \frac{ft⋅lb}{s}}{100} \) = 4207.5 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \)
General Science

50°F is how many °C?

10

The formula to convert from F° to C° is:

\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)

plugging in our values gives:

\(C° = {5 \over 9} (50 - 32)\)

\(C° = {5 \over 9} (18)\)

\(C° = {90 \over 9}\)

\(C° = 10\)
