Question 1: What is the primary difference between a turboprop and a turbofan engine?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Turboprops generate thrust via a propeller, while turbofans use a fan and a high-pressure turbine.

Turbofan engines use a propeller for thrust generation, while turboprops rely on jet exhaust.

Turboprops are used for high-speed jet aircraft, while turbofans are for subsonic flights.

Turboprops provide greater fuel efficiency, while turbofans are more powerful.

Question 2: What is the primary role of an aircraft's bus bar in the electrical system?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

To isolate the aircraft's electrical systems from external power sources

To convert AC power into DC power for avionics

To provide a central connection point for electrical circuits, ensuring power distribution

To store electrical energy for use in emergencies

Question 3: When considering the control surfaces, what is the primary role of an aircraft's ailerons in lateral dynamics?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

To control the roll rate of the aircraft

To maintain the center of gravity in the desired position

To control pitch and yaw moments

To manage the aircraft's drag characteristics

Question 4: What is a key consideration when selecting capacitors?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Operational lifespan

Voltage rating

Temperature coefficient

Capacitance stability

Question 5: What is the primary function of a rib in a wing structure?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Maintaining material integrity during flight

Providing compressive strength

Distributing thrust forces evenly

Distributing aerodynamic forces

Question 6: Which standard is primarily followed for electrical wiring?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option
