Welding Vocab 2

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. A cloud- like area where welding fume collects






2. Compliance for Safety Glasses






3. A movement forward






4. 70% of the heat is concentrated in the workpiece; 30% of the heat is concentrated in the tungsten electrode; Deep penetration; Narrow weld area; welding other materials than aluminum or magnesium






5. A government agency in the Department of Labor to maintain a safe and healthy work environment






6. A metal joint formed by softening with heat and fusing or hammering together






7. A low- carbon steel containing sufficient iron oxide to give a continuous evolution of carbon monoxide while the ingot is solidifying - resulting in a case or rim of metal virtually free of voids. Sheet and strip products made from rimmed steel ingot






8. Steel whose characteristics are determined by the amount of carbon it contains






9. The surface of a material in contact with another to which it is or will be joined






10. (physical chemistry) a fourth state of matter distinct from solid or liquid or gas and present in stars and fusion reactors

12. Shield consisting of an arrangement of metal mesh or plates designed to protect electronic equipment from ambient electromagnetic interference






13. American Welding Society






14. Used to achieve better hardenability - which in turn improves its other mechanical properties. They are also used to increase corrosion resistance in certain environmental conditions. Difficult to weld.






15. A condition that occurs when the arc does not follow its intended path from the electrode to the workpiece. Arc blow can cause undesirable weld beads.






16. These are areas where your hands can become trapped or mashed between two objects






17. Put into a certain place or abstract location






18. Cut away material from the underside of (an object) so as to leave an overhanging portion in relief






19. An affix that is added at the end of the word

21. Procedure To prevent the accidental release of energy to equipment being cleaned -






22. A vehicle used to haul goods ; especially : a strong cart or wagon without sides

24. Of or relating to or containing iron






25. Air conditioning; alternating current






26. Lack of connection of continuity
