Mechanical ASVAB Exam Study Guide Solutions


force - ✔✔Changes the velocity of an object


friction - ✔✔Acts in opposition to motion, causes effort work to be larger than load work


equilibrium - ✔✔Net force is zero when velocity is not changing


viscous drag - ✔✔Like friction, however increases with speed, varies by shape


gravity - ✔✔Causes objects to fall


mass - ✔✔Amount of substance


weight - ✔✔Force of gravity on a mass


lift - ✔✔Caused by higher speed air flow over a lower speed air flow


camber - ✔✔When a surface is curved


airfoil - ✔✔Shape of a wing, fan or propeller


leading edge - ✔✔Part that meets airflow first


upwash - ✔✔Airstream that's directed upward


trailing edge - ✔✔Where upper and lower airflow meet


downwash - ✔✔Airstream directed downward


thrust - ✔✔One of four airplane forces which goes forward


drag - ✔✔One of four airplane forces which goes backward


elastic recoil - ✔✔The "reaction" force when pushing on a solid

, tension - ✔✔Rope under a force


tension rule - ✔✔Tension is the same throughout


buoyancy - ✔✔If the weight of an object is less than the weight of the fluid it displaces, it will rise


negative buoyancy - ✔✔If the weight of an object is greater than the weight of the fluid it displaces


fluid - ✔✔Air is one


action and reaction - ✔✔Forces exist only in pairs


components of force - ✔✔The smaller the angle, the larger the effective force


component of force rule - ✔✔Only the component action in the direction the sled is going does work


inclined plane - ✔✔Weight of the stroller acts parallel and normal to the surface


inclined plane rule - ✔✔Total force to keep stroller moving is equal to parallel component plus friction


parallel - ✔✔Going along the surface


normal - ✔✔Going into the surface


simple machines - ✔✔Pulleys, levers, jacks, hydraulics, vises, ramps, vises, cranks, gears


pulley - ✔✔With single, effort is half the load and effort distance is twice the load distance


load - ✔✔Object being lifted


load distance - ✔✔Distance lifted object moves


effort - ✔✔Force exerted


effort distance - ✔✔Distance force is exerted


work - ✔✔Force moving over a distance
