ACTUAL EXAM WITH 250 QUESTION AND DETAILED
ANSWERS (VERIFIED ANSWERS) [ALREADY GRADED
A+] BRANDNEW!!!
What is the reason for having separate facilities for storing and
servicing nickel-cadmium and lead-acid batteries? - ANSWER-
The electrolytes are chemically opposite and the fumes from one
can contaminate the electrolyte of the other
The state of charge of a nickel-cadmium battery cannot be
determined by measuring the specific gravity of the electrolyte for
what reason? - ANSWER-There is no significant change in the
specific gravity of the electrolyte as the battery is charged or
discharged in Ni-Cad batteries
,2|Page
What is the principal advantage of AC over DC? - ANSWER-
Power can be transmitted over long distances more efficiently and
with smaller wires because the voltage can be easily increased or
decreased by a transformer
What are the three causes of opposition to current flow in an AC
circuit? - ANSWER-Resistance, Inductive reactance, and
Capacitive reactance
Define Inductance - ANSWER-An induced voltage which is
opposite the direction of the applied voltage
What component creates capacitance in AC circuits? - ANSWER-
A Capacitor
,3|Page
How does a capacitor store electricity? - ANSWER-Energy is
stored in the form of an electrostatic charge or field that exists
between two conductors separated by an insulator
What property of an AC circuit is defined by the term impedance?
- ANSWER-Total opposition to current flow
What are two reasons that might cause a nickel-cadmium battery
to fail to deliver its rated capacity? - ANSWER-Faulty cells or cell
imbalance
What electrical values are measured by a typical multimeter ? -
ANSWER-Voltage, Current, Resistance
, 4|Page
How many views are required to represent the important details of
most aircraft ? - ANSWER-One, Two, or Three are usually
enough
What kinds of parts can be represented by one-view drawings? -
ANSWER-Parts with uniform thickness like shims, plates, or
gaskets
What is the name for a part of a drawing used to bring out
important details and how it is drawn? - ANSWER-A detailed
view, usually drawn to a larger scale than the main drawing
What is the purpose of schematic diagrams? - ANSWER-They
are primarily used for troubleshooting systems
