Sample Practice Test Questions

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.

Word Knowledge
Archetypal most nearly means:
classic
Characteristic of the original model or perfect example.
Word Knowledge
Heidi's grandfather was gruff, barking stern orders and hardly smiling.
surly
Rough or stern in manner or speech.
Arithmetic Reasoning

What is \( \frac{1}{8} \) x \( \frac{1}{5} \)?

\(\frac{1}{40}\)

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:

\( \frac{1}{8} \) x \( \frac{1}{5} \) = \( \frac{1 x 1}{8 x 5} \) = \( \frac{1}{40} \) = \(\frac{1}{40}\)

Arithmetic Reasoning

If a mayor is elected with 86% of the votes cast and 68% of a town's 29,000 voters cast a vote, how many votes did the mayor receive?

16,959

If 68% of the town's 29,000 voters cast ballots the number of votes cast is:

(\( \frac{68}{100} \)) x 29,000 = \( \frac{1,972,000}{100} \) = 19,720

The mayor got 86% of the votes cast which is:

(\( \frac{86}{100} \)) x 19,720 = \( \frac{1,695,920}{100} \) = 16,959 votes.

Word Knowledge
The genial host warmly greeted his many guests.
pleasant
Sympathetic, friendly.
Math Knowledge
4\( \sqrt{2} \)

If the area of this square is 16, what is the length of one of the diagonals?

4\( \sqrt{2} \)

To find the diagonal we need to know the length of one of the square's sides. We know the area and the area of a square is the length of one side squared:

a = s2

so the length of one side of the square is:

s = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{16} \) = 4

The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a triangle with a right angle as the sum of the squares of the other two sides:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 42 + 42
c2 = 32
c = \( \sqrt{32} \) = \( \sqrt{16 x 2} \) = \( \sqrt{16} \) \( \sqrt{2} \)
c = 4\( \sqrt{2} \)

General Science

The envelope of gases surrounding the planet is called the:

atmosphere

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).

Mechanical Comprehension

According to Boyle's law, for a fixed amount of gas kept at a fixed temperature, which of the following are inversely proportional?

pressure, volume

Boyle's law states that "for a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional".

Electronics Information
diode

This circuit component symbol represents a(n):

diode

A diode allows current to pass easily in one direction and blocks current in the other direction. Diodes are commonly used for rectification which is the conversion of alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). Because a diode only allows current flow in one direction, it will pass either the upper or lower half of AC waves (half-wave rectification) creating pulsating DC. Multiple diodes can be connected together to utilize both halves of the AC signal in full-wave rectification.
