General Test

QuestionAnswer
The basis for transformer operation in the use of alternating current is mutual inductance
In an N-P-N transistor application, the solid-state device is turned on when the base is positive with respect to the emitter
Which symbol represents a variable resistor? Resister with arrow through the middle
The voltage drop in a circuit of known resistance is dependent on the amperage of the circuit
The purpose of providing a space underneath the plates in a lead acid battery's cell container is to prevent sediment buildup from contacting the plates and causing a short circuit.
In a P-N-P transistor application, the solid-state device is turned on when the base is negative with respect to the emitter
Forward biasing of a solid-state device will cause the device to conduct
How can the state-of-charge of a nickel-cadmium battery be determined? by a measured discharge
Which condition is an indication of improperly torqued cell link connections of a nickel-cadmium battery? Heat or burn marks on the hardware.
The control valve switch must be placed in the neutral position when the landing gear is down to prevent the warning horn from sounding when the throttles are closed.
What is the total capacitance of a circuit containing three capacitors with capacitances of .02 microfarad, .05 microfarad, and .10 microfarad, respectively? .0125 uF
Convert farads to picofarads by: multiplying farads by 10 to the power of 12
Typical application for zener diodes is as Voltage regulators
What is the basic unit of electrical quantity? coulomb
Which of these will cause the resistance of a conductor to decrease? Decrease the length or increase the cross-sectional area.
What will a voltmeter read if properly connected across a closed switch in a circuit with electrical power on? zero voltage
The amount of electricity a capacitor can store is directly proportional to the plate area and inversely proportional to the distance between the plates.
A lead-acid battery with 12 cells connected in series (no-load voltage = 2.1 volts per cell) furnishes 10 amperes to a load of 2-ohms resistance. The internal resistance of the battery in this instance is 0.52 ohm
The potential difference between two conductors which are insulated from each other is measured in volts
The correct way to connect a test voltmeter in a circuit is in parallel with a unit
In an AC circuit, the effective voltage is less than the maximum instantaneous voltage.
Convert farads to microfarads by multiplying farads by 10 to the power of 6
The working voltage of a capacitor in an AC circuit should be at least 50 percent greater than the highest applied voltage.
When calculating power in a reactive or inductive AC circuit, the true power is less than the apparent power
What happens to the current in a voltage step-up transformer with a ratio of 1 to 4? The current is stepped down by a 1 to 4 ratio.
What does the letter Q symbolize when measuring electrical charge? coulomb
Transfer of electric energy from one circuit to another without the aid of electrical connections is called induction

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
