Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

Describe inductance.
Inducted voltage which opposite in direction to the applied voltage.
How is inductance represented in an AC circuit?
By a coil.
How is capacitance represented in an AC circuit?
By a Capacitor.
What's the function of a capacitor in an AC (alternating current) circuit?
To store eletricity.
You must apply a correction to the specific gravity that varies between what two values?
When the temperature is less than 70°F or more than 90°F.
How much voltage do most aircraft systems require for special equipment?
Most 24 volts, needs 400Hertz AC current.
Compare AC & DC circuits in aircraft.
DC flows constantly in 1 direction. AC can change direction at/during regular intervals, is lighter and its voltage can be stepped up/down ( with transformer).
What types of circuits do A&Ps encounter on an aircraft?
A combination circuit, series-parallel.
Three types of D.C. Electrical circuits:
Series, Parallel and Series/Parallel. (complex)
Explain Kirchoff's Law.
.
What Law is relevant when it comes to voltage?
Kirchoff ́s law.
What are some common methods electrical energy can be produced?
Pressure (PIEZOELECTRIC MATERIALS), Chemical (BATTERY), Thermal (THERMOCOUPLES), Sun Light.
Scientifically, power is measured in:
Watts.
How do you express Ohm's Law as an equation?
.
What change occurs in a D.C. (direct current) circuit when applied voltage is increased & resistance remains constant?
Current increases.
What are the basic elements of Ohm’s law?
Voltage, Resistance , Current.
What law governs the basic study of electricity?
Ohm’s law.
What makes up an electrical circuit?
A source of electrical energy, a resistance(load) and conductors (wires).
What is the difference between permanent and temporary magnets when the external magnetizing force is removed?
Permanent magnets retain their magnetism. Temporary magnets rapidly lose magnetism.
Describe magnetism.
An objects property which attracts metallic substances.
What is a common cause of damage to solid-state components and/or integrated circuits?
Electro-Static discharge (ESD) from the human body during handling.
One Kilowatt is equal to how many watts?
1000 watts
