Sample Practice Test Questions

General Science

This skeletal system is common in arthropods like insects, spiders, and crustaceans.

exoskeleton

An exoskeleton (external skeleton) is common in arthropods like insects, spiders, and crustaceans.

General Science

A major difference between sound waves and light waves is which of the following?

all of these are correct

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.

Mechanical Comprehension
If you lift a 30 lbs. rock 24 ft. from the ground, how much work have you done?
720 ft⋅lb
Work is force times distance. In this case, the force is the weight of the rock so:
\( W = F \times d \)
\( W = 30 \times 24 \)
\( W = 720 \)
Mechanical Comprehension
15 ft. If the green box weighs 25 lbs. and 75 lbs. of force is applied 5 ft. from the fulcrum at the blue arrow, how far from the fulcrum would the green box need to be placed to balance the lever?
15 ft.

To balance this lever the torques at the green box and the blue arrow must be equal. Torque is weight x distance from the fulcrum so the equation for equilibrium is:

Rada = Rbdb

where a represents the green box and b the blue arrow, R is resistance (weight/force) and d is the distance from the fulcrum.

Solving for da, our missing value, and plugging in our variables yields:

da = \( \frac{R_bd_b}{R_a} \) = \( \frac{75 lbs. \times 5 ft.}{25 lbs.} \) = \( \frac{375 ft⋅lb}{25 lbs.} \) = 15 ft.

General Science

Which of blood component allows blood to clot?

platelets

Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.

Mechanical Comprehension
48.89 lbs. If A = 10 ft., B = 1 ft., C = 9 ft., the green box weighs 50 lbs. and the blue box weighs 60 lbs., what does the orange box have to weigh for this lever to balance?
48.89 lbs.
In order for this lever to balance, the torque acting on each side of the fulrum must be equal. So, the torque produced by A must equal the torque produced by B and C. Torque is weight x distance from the fulcrum which means that the following must be true for the lever to balance:

fAdA = fBdB + fCdC

For this problem, this equation becomes:

50 lbs. x 10 ft. = 60 lbs. x 1 ft. + fC x 9 ft.

500 ft. lbs. = 60 ft. lbs. + fC x 9 ft.

fC = \( \frac{500 ft. lbs. - 60 ft. lbs.}{9 ft.} \) = \( \frac{440 ft. lbs.}{9 ft.} \) = 48.89 lbs.

Automotive Information

Which of the following is a relay that connects the battery to the starter motor when the ignition key is turned?

solenoid

The cylindrical solenoid is a relay that safely connects the high amperage battery to the starter motor when the ignition key is turned. This current then allows the engine to turn at a high enough speed to start.

General Science

In the classification of life, bacteria, archaea and eukaryota are which of the following?

domains

The broadest classification of life splits all organisms into three groups called domains. The three domains of life are bacteria, archaea and eukaryota.

Shop Information
vernier caliper

This tool is a(n) __________.

vernier caliper

Calipers are similar to micrometers in shape but instead of measuring distances, calipers are used to transfer distances between objects. An outside caliper is used to transfer outside dimensions while an inside caliper is used to transfer inside distances. A vernier caliper is an extremely precise caliper (down to \({1 \over 1000}\) inch) that allows measuring / transferring either inside or outside dimensions.

Electronics Information

Capacitors store:

electricity

Capacitors store electricity and are used in circuits as temporary batteries. Capacitors are charged by DC current (AC current passes through a capacitor) and that stored charge can later be dissipated into the circuit as needed. Capacitors are often used to maintain power within a system when it is disconnected from its primary power source or to smooth out or filter voltage within a circuit.
