    What are the two classifications of failures in the reliability centered maintenance (RCM) approach?

    • Evident and hidden

    • Potential and evident

    • Hidden and functional

    • Potential and functional

    Correct Answer
    A. Potential and functional
    Explanation
    In the reliability centered maintenance (RCM) approach, failures are classified into two categories: potential and functional failures. Potential failures refer to failures that have not yet occurred but have the potential to happen in the future. Functional failures, on the other hand, are failures that have already occurred and are affecting the system's functionality. By categorizing failures in this way, the RCM approach allows for a proactive approach to maintenance, addressing potential failures before they happen and minimizing the impact of functional failures.

    Which nuts should never be used in areas where the temperature exceeds 250 degrees F?

    • Plain nuts

    • Wing nuts

    • Metallic self-locking nuts

    • Nonmetallic self-locking nuts

    Correct Answer
    A. Nonmetallic self-locking nuts
    Explanation
    Nonmetallic self-locking nuts should never be used in areas where the temperature exceeds 250 degrees F because they are made from materials that cannot withstand high temperatures. These nuts are typically made from materials like nylon or plastic, which have lower melting points compared to metallic nuts. When exposed to high temperatures, nonmetallic self-locking nuts can melt, deform, or lose their locking ability, compromising the integrity of the fastening system. Therefore, it is important to use metallic nuts or other heat-resistant options in high-temperature environments to ensure safety and proper functioning.
