5 sample questions
These questions are part of the practice test above. Each answer stays hidden until you open it.
1. A 24-volt source is connected across a 6-ohm resistor. How much current flows?
- A. 144 amperes
- B. 4 amperes
- C. 0.25 ampere
- D. 18 amperes
Show the answer
Answer: B. Ohm's law: I = E / R = 24 V / 6 Ω = 4 A. Multiplying (144) or dividing the wrong way (0.25) are the two classic slips; write the formula before you plug in numbers.
2. On an aircraft drawing, a line made of one long and two short evenly spaced dashes is a phantom line. It shows
- A. an edge hidden behind another surface
- B. the alternate position of a part or a missing adjacent part
- C. the center of a hole or symmetrical part
- D. where an imaginary cut is taken for a section view
Show the answer
Answer: B. The handbook: phantom lines indicate the alternate position of parts of the object or the relative position of a missing part, drawn as one long and two short evenly spaced dashes. Hidden edges use short dashes; center lines alternate long and short dashes.
3. A 170-pound passenger sits at an arm of +45 inches. What moment does the passenger create?
- A. 3.78 inch-pounds
- B. 215 inch-pounds
- C. 7,650 inch-pounds
- D. 76,500 inch-pounds
Show the answer
Answer: C. Moment = weight × arm = 170 lb × 45 in = 7,650 in-lb. Moments are always weight times distance from the datum, expressed in inch-pounds.
4. Rigid metal tubing marked as number 6 has what dimension?
- A. 3/8-inch outside diameter
- B. 3/8-inch inside diameter
- C. 6/32-inch wall thickness
- D. 6-inch minimum bend radius
Show the answer
Answer: A. Metal tubing is sized by outside diameter in sixteenths of an inch: number 6 is 6/16 (3/8) inch OD and number 8 is 8/16 (1/2) inch OD. Fitting dash numbers follow the same nominal OD in sixteenths.
5. An AN bolt with two raised dashes on its head is made of
- A. corrosion-resistant steel
- B. cadmium-plated carbon steel
- C. aluminum alloy
- D. titanium alloy
Show the answer
Answer: C. AN head markings: a cross or asterisk for standard alloy steel, a single raised dash for corrosion-resistant steel, and two raised dashes for aluminum alloy. A triangle marks a close-tolerance bolt.
