Navy Aviation Machinist Mate A School
Week 1 UPDATED Exam Questions and
CORRECT Answers
Matter - Correct Answer- Anything that takes up space. Can change from one state to another.
Made up of Elements or Compounds.
states of matter - Correct Answer- solid, liquid, gas
Solid - Correct Answer- state of matter with a definite shape and volume
liquid - Correct Answer- A state of matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape.
Gas - Correct Answer- A state of matter with no definite shape or volume
Volume - Correct Answer- the amount of space an object occupies
Mass - Correct Answer- the amount of matter in an object
Weight - Correct Answer- A measure of the force of gravity acting on an object
Gravity - Correct Answer- Force that attracts an object towards the center of the earth
Density - Correct Answer- Amount or quantity of mass per unit volume
Force - Correct Answer- The total pressure acting upon an object
Pressure - Correct Answer- Force per unit area measured in PSI
, Types of Pressure - Correct Answer- Static Pressure
Impact Pressure
Relative Pressure
Absolute Pressure
Static Pressure - Correct Answer- Pressure in a confined space or not causing motion
Impact Pressure - Correct Answer- pressure caused by motion
Relative Pressure - Correct Answer- One pressure in relation to another
Absolute Pressure - Correct Answer- Sum of the Atmospheric Pressure and System pressure
starting from a theoretical vacuum
Pascal's Law - Correct Answer- Pressure applied to enclosed or confined fluid is transmitted
equally in all directions without loss, and acts with equal force on all surfaces.
Bernoulli's Principle - Correct Answer- States whenever a stream of any fluid has it's velocity
increase at a given point the pressure of the stream at that given point is less than the rest of
the stream.
Divergent Venturi tube - Correct Answer- Decrease velocity and increase pressure
Convergent Venturi tube - Correct Answer- increase velocity and decrease pressure
Boyle's Law - Correct Answer- States the volume of a given mass of a gas varies inversely
with pressure when temperature is constant
Charles' Law - Correct Answer- States if the volume of a confined gas is constant the pressure
is directly proportional to the absolute temperature or if the pressure is unchanged the volume
is proportional to the temperature
Newtons Laws of Motion - Correct Answer- Law of interia
