Engineering Studies

Subject : engineering
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Difference/original






2. Squeezing of the hot metal between two shaped dies excess is cut off






3. A strong hard building material composed of sand and gravel and cement and water






4. A solid state component made from three layers of semiconductor material that can amplify the strenght of an electric signal or act as an electronic switch






5. Involves heating the piece above Red heat and then letting it cool in air. causes smaller grains






6. Glass that is strengthened by introducing stress through rapid heating and cooling of the glass surfaces






7. Degradation of a signal as it travels over a cable. Attenuation increased with higher frequencies






8. Steel reinforcing rusts - rust has a greater volume concrete then breaks of as a result.






9. 100GHZ+






10. Area parallel to force






11. Use of xrays passed through the material to make a visual record of internal structures on specially sensitized film






12. Allows for another signal to be sent along the carrier signal






13. Produces; harder - stronger and less ductile product






14. Solid at room temp - weak secondary bonds. can be reheated multiply times.






15. Between 2000-35 -700km above the earth's surface.






16. Soft - ductile






17. Based on the principle that magnetic materials will have distorted magnetic fields in the vicinity of material defects






18. Dye is sprayed onto a surface - with excess being wiped away - meaning any left on the piece would be in cracks that exist in it. A Fluorescent light is turned on to expose any left over - I.e in the cracks






19. Occurs when the metal is hammered by a vertically moving tool onto a stationary tool






20. Forming of metal by compressive force above recrystallization point.






21. Dye is sprayed onto a surface - with excess being wiped away - meaning any left on the piece would be in cracks that exist in it. A developer is then added to it to expose any left over - I.e in the cracks






22. Makes brittle by heating and then cooling quickly - less flexible. Red Heat then quenching






23. Good wear - case hardening. ball bearings






24. Vertical






25. Mass X gravity X height






26. 100khz






27. An orbit less than 1 -500 km. above the Earth's surface.






28. Supply current to the rotating commutator from an external source






29. The quantity of information that can be transmitted through a communication medium in a given amount of time.






30. A flexible communications cable that contains pairs of insulated copper wires that are twisted together for reduction of EMI and RFI and covered with an outer insulating jacket.






31. Can be reflected of the ionosphere - 3 to 30 megahertz






32. A method of transmitting signals by changing the frequency of a wave






33. Load/effort






34. Sound waves sent through a material - much like sonar. Internal defects appear because they use more energy to go through it.






35. Usually used together - strengthening and toughness






36. X<1% silicon no graphite - has carbon/carbide. very brittle






37. The greater the sulphur the harder the rubber to stretch






38. MA=VR






39. Resulting from exposure to oxygen in the atmosphere - chemical fumes - steam - flue gas. creates a layer of metal oxide.






40. Horizontal






41. When upper die is dropped on bottom






42. 1/4 of the wavelength (higher better)






43. These have weaker secondary bonds which allow the stretching






44. 10MHZ






45. Low pressure

46. 0.3%<X<0.6% carbon. mostly pear- lite - heat treatable. 0.4 used in axles






47. AC to DC






48. Resulting from combined effect of stresses set up within the metal






49. Resulting from exposure to damp environments and liquids.






50. Load/area
