ASA PRIVATE PILOT 2020 TEST PREP (CHAPTER 3) QUESTIONS WITH 100% CORRECT VERIFIED ANSWERS. “Which instruments will become inoperative if the pitot tube becomes clogged? - CORRECT ANSWER Airspeed" "Which instruments will become inoperative if the static vents become clogged? - CORRECT ANSWER Airspeed, altimeter, and vertical speed." "Under what conditions will true altitude be lower than indicated altitude? - CORRECT ANSWER In colder than standard air temperature." "What is absolute altitude? - CORRECT ANSWER the vertical distance of the aircraft above the surface." "What is density altitude? - CORRECT ANSWER The pressure altitude corrected for nonstandard temperature." "What is pressure altitude? - CORRECT ANSWER The altitude indicated when the barometric pressure scale is set to 29.92." "Under what condition is indicated altitude the same as true altitude? - CORRECT ANSWER When at sea level under standard conditions." "If it is necessary to set the altimeter from 29.15 to 29.85, what change occurs? - CORRECT ANSWER 700-foot increase in indicated altitude" "Under which condition will pressure altitude be equal to true altitude? - CORRECT ANSWER When standard atmospheric pressure conditions exist." "In the northern hemisphere, a magnetic compass will normally indicate a turn towards the north if - CORRECT ANSWER an aircraft is accelerated on an east or west heading." "In the northern hemisphere, the magnetic compass will normally indicate a turn toward the south when - CORRECT ANSWER the aircraft is decelerated while on an east-west heading." "What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard rate turn to the right from a south heading in the northern hemisphere? - CORRECT ANSWER The compass will indicate a turn to the right, but at a faster rate than is actually occurring." "In the northern hemisphere, a magnetic compass will normally indicate initially a turn toward the west if - CORRECT ANSWER a right turn is entered from a north heading." "During flight, when are the indications of a magnetic compass accurate? - CORRECT ANSWER Only in straight-and-level unaccelerated flight." "If the pitot tube and outside static vents become clogged, which instruments would be effected? - CORRECT ANSWER The altimeter , airspeed, and vertical speed indicator." "Which V-speed represents maneuvering speed? - CORRECT ANSWER VA" "What does the red line on an airspeed indicator represent? - CORRECT ANSWER Never-exceed speed." "Which color identifies the never-exceed speed? - CORRECT ANSWER Red Radial Line" "Which color identifies the power-off stalling speed in a specified configuration? - CORRECT ANSWER Lower limit of the green arc." "Which would provide the greatest gain in altitude in the shortest distance climb after takeoff? - CORRECT ANSWER VX" "After takeoff, which airspeed would be the pilot use to gain the most altitude in a given period of time? - CORRECT ANSWER VY" "Which color identifies the normal flap operating range? - CORRECT ANSWER The white arc." "Which color identifies the power-off stalling speed with wing flaps and landing gear in the landing configuration? - CORRECT ANSWER The lower limit of the white arc." "What is an important airspeed limitation that is not color coded on airspeed indicators? - CORRECT ANSWER Maneuvering speed." "Which V-speed represents maximum flap extended speed? - CORRECT ANSWER VFE" "Which V-speed represents maximum landing gear extended speed? - CORRECT ANSWER VLE" "VSO is defined as the - CORRECT ANSWER stalling speed or minimum steady flight speed in the landing configuration." "If an altimeter setting is not available before flight, to which altitude should the pilot adjust the altimeter? - CORRECT ANSWER The elevation of the departure area." "At what altitude shall the altimeter be set to 29.92, when climbing to cruising flight level? - CORRECT ANSWER 18,000 feet MSL" "Altimeter setting is the value to which the barometric pressure scale of the altimeter is set so the altimeter indicates - CORRECT ANSWER true altitude at field level." "How do variations in temperature affect the altimeter? - CORRECT ANSWER Pressure levels are raised on warm days and the indicated altitude is lower than true altitude." "What is true altitude? - CORRECT ANSWER The vertical distance of the aircraft above sea level." "Under what condition is pressure altitude and density altitude the same value? - CORRECT ANSWER At standard temperature." "If a flight is made from an area of low pressure into an area of high pressure without the altimeter setting being adjusted, the altimeter will indicate - CORRECT ANSWER lower than the actual altitude above sea level." "If a flight is made from an area of high pressure into an area of lower pressure without the altimeter setting being adjusted, the altimeter will indicate - CORRECT ANSWER higher than the actual altitude above sea level." "Which condition would cause the altimeter to indicate a lower altitude than true altitude? - CORRECT ANSWER Air temperature warmer than standard." "How should a pilot determine the direction of bank form an altitude indicator? - CORRECT ANSWER By the relationship of the miniature airplane to the deflected horizon bar." "A turn coordinator provides an indication of - CORRECT ANSWER movement of the aircraft about the yaw and roll axis." "To receive accurate indications during flight from a heading indicator, the instrument must be - CORRECT ANSWER periodically realigned with the magnetic compass as the gyro precesses." "Deviation in a magnetic compass is caused by the - CORRECT ANSWER magnetic field within the aircraft distorting the lines of magnetic force." "The angular difference between true north and magnetic north is - CORRECT ANSWER magnetic variation."
