QUESTIONS AND VERIFIED ANSWERS | GRADE A+

A)

Study the diagram and not that the follower is at its highest position between points Q and R.In the figure above, the follower is at its highest position between points

• Q and R
• R and S
• S and T
• T and Q

• If the head of the bolt is held stationary and the nut is turned

clockwise the nut will move down.

Clockwise is right to left, so if the nut moves, it follows the threads of the bolt downward.Which of the following statements is true about the figure above?

• If the nut is held stationary and the head turned clockwise the bolt

will move up.

• If the head of the bolt is held stationary and the nut is turned

clockwise the nut will move down.

• If the head of the bolt is stationary and the nut is turned clockwise

the nut will move up.

• If the nut is held stationary and the bolt it turned counterclockwise

the nut will move up

• Swing away from the tuning fork

When the tuning fork vibrates it moves currents of air. This vibrating air would cause the ping pong ball to be pushed away.When the tuning fork shown above is struck the ping pong ball will

• Remain Stationary
• Bounce up and down
• Hit the tuning fork
• Swing away from the tuning fork

• Be enlarged

The film of water inside the loop would form a lens that would enlarge the printing on the page. If you look through a water filled globe, objects will also appear larger.The print in the figure above looked at through the film of water will

• Be too blurred to read
• Look the same as surrounding print
• Be enlarged
• Appear smaller

• Rise in the air
• / 3

If the man moves to the back of the seesaw, his momentum (weight x distance from the center) will increase. The woman, who is lighter will rise in the air.In the illustration above, if the man backs to the end of the seesaw, the women will

• Remain stationary
• Rise in the air
• Hit the ground hard
• Slide to her end of the seesaw

• Insulating the pipe

Insulating the pipes keeps warm moisture-laden air from coming into contact with the cold pipes. This stops condensation.Condensation on cold water pipes is frequently prevented by

• Insulating the pipe
• Keeping the temperature of cold water at least 10° above the freezing

point

• Keeping the cold water lines near the hot water lines
• Oiling or greasing the outside of the pipe

A) .2270

The measurements that can be made on the micrometer are: A) 2 minor

divisions and 1 minor division on the ruler type scale, or .2+.025= .225;

• 2 minor divisions above 0 on the rotating scale, or .002. Summing, we

find the final measurement is .225+.002= .227
