Good Morning:
For those with extra time on your hands, a POP quiz for your entertainment.
http://www.forddoctorsdts.com/quizze...alAptitude.php
This is a simulated aptitude test for diesel repair technicians. The questions are specifically and exactly phrased based on established Engineering and Scientific knowledge. This quiz is multiple choice, but some of the incorrect answers offered in many cases are offered based on 'common mis-understanding' of engineering and physics. The test is long.
Some hints:
The one for the fans near the end. The clockwise / CCW rotation is from your perspective as you view the problem. Don't get confused, the question (and the correct answer) is specific to someone viewing the graphic as drawn.
The gear reduction problems, count the teeth on the two gears.
One question on gears, uses words some may not be familiar with. Don't hesitate to Google the word in WIKIpedia for what the word means.
The two weights on the balance: just remember, if the weights were equal and the pivot was in the exact middle they would balance. Yes, it is a trick question on how they word the question and the possible answers.
Near the end is a question on a piston engine. The correct answer is exact scientific cause and effect, the wording of the question is specific.
Enjoy.
Phil
