    Re: mechanical aptitude test

    92% But as Finga said, some of the questions are ambiguous.

    Like the one about the fans(Q38) - will they turn in the same direction? One will turn counter clockwise and one will turn clockwise when viewed from behind each.

    Google was a bit of help with understanding the theory of pulleys too.
    Basically divide the load by the number of lines going to the load end.
    1 line = 100% of load, 2 lines = 50%, 3 lines = 33.333% and so on.

    Q. 26 (the one about the 3 lamps and two switches, with one of the switches having its leads between lamp 1 and lamp 3) I got that wrong - But I still reckon the middle lamp would glow dimly. I must test my theory with lightbulbs and battery.

    The ones I got wrong were Numbers 7, 26, 38, 48

    Q.48 The one about what causes air to enter a cylinder during intake stroke is a combination of both suction and atmospheric pressure. Atmospheric pressure wont have any effect if the area where you want the air to go isn't at a lower pressure than the surrounding atmosphere - unless you are using some means of compressing the air to force it to where you want it.

    Yeah I know - sour grapes..... But I admit to getting Q.7 just plain wrong.
