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.

7. A metal added in the making of a joint through welding - brazing - or soldering.






8. A set of rules or principles or laws (especially written ones)






9. Of or relating to or containing iron






10. A phenomenon associated with surface tension and resulting in the elevation or depression of liquids in capillaries






11. Compliance for Safety Glasses

24. The act of splashing a (liquid) substance on a surface






25. Lack of connection of continuity






26. 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
