How many watts in a horsepower - correct answer 746 watts
What is a carburetor and what is its role in the internal combustion engine - correct answer A device that
filters air and mixes fuel in an engine
What is the difference between a disc brake and a drum brake, and how do they function to stop a
vehicle - correct answer Disc brakes use friction pads to stop the rotor, while drum brakes use shoes to
press against a drum
A vehicle turns sharply around a corner, creating a sideways force that is applied to the passengers. What
is this force known as - correct answer Centrifugal Force
When two or more mechanical forces balance each other out, this is known as - correct answer
Equilibrium
Two balls of equal density, one larger than the other, collide with one another at the same speed from
opposite directions. What will happen the larger ball - correct answer It will continue forward at a slower
rate
Newtons law of universal gravitation states that the force of gravitational attraction is dependent upon
which two variables - correct answer Mass and distance
In a double pulley system, how much force is needed to lift a 20kg weight - correct answer 10kg force
What is the formula for calculating mechanical advantage (MA) - correct answer Output force/input
space
A ball is thrown with a force of 38N to a distance of 2.8 meters. How much work was created through
this action - correct answer 89.5 Joules Force X Distance =
In mechanics, vector quantities are quantities that posses both magnitude and what else - correct
answer Direction

When 30 pounds of force is applied to 8 square inch of surface, what pressure is exerted - correct answer
3.75 PSI Force/Area 30/8
When more than two gears are rotating, what can we say about the speed of the smaller gear - correct
answer It rotates faster than the larger gear
What are Registers - correct answer These can be either analog or digital and are responsible for
recording the values being measured in a graph where the value of the magnitude is shown over a
period of time
Ohmmeter - correct answer Records the ohms, or the electrical resistance, in circuit
Ohm - correct answer Measures electrical resistance
Ampere - correct answer Measures electrical current
Volt - correct answer Measures Electrical Pressure (Voltages)
1 amp - correct answer It is equal to 120 watts
Watt - correct answer Measures electrical power (Energy consumed)
short circuit - correct answer A circuit with no resistance
Ohms law - correct answer The relationship between voltage, amperage and resistance
Voltage = - correct answer current (I) x resistance (R)
Amperes x Resistance
