Explanation

Atoms having more than four electrons, but less than eight are known as insulators because insulators have a full valence shell of electrons, making it difficult for them to gain or lose electrons and conduct electricity. These atoms have enough electrons to fill the lower energy levels but lack enough to complete the outermost shell, making them poor conductors of electricity. Insulators are materials that do not easily allow the flow of electric current through them due to their tightly bound electrons.

Submit

Submit
76. The MA–3D air conditioner temperature controller opens the hot gas bypass valve if the

Explanation

The correct answer is that if the suction pressure is too low, the boiling point of the refrigerant must be increased to increase the output air temperature. This is because the boiling point of a refrigerant is directly related to its pressure. When the suction pressure is too low, it means that the refrigerant is not evaporating properly, which can result in a decrease in the output air temperature. By increasing the boiling point of the refrigerant, it allows for more efficient evaporation and therefore an increase in the output air temperature.

Submit
77. During high voltage operation of the B809A generator set, what action occurs to prevent the direct current (DC) contactors from closing?

Explanation

During high voltage operation of the B809A generator set, the High sense relay (HSR) is responsible for monitoring the voltage levels. When the voltage reaches a certain threshold, the HSR de-energizes, which means it stops supplying power to the direct current (DC) contactors. This action prevents the DC contactors from closing and ensures that the generator set operates safely during high voltage conditions.

Submit
78. How many semiconductors make up a metal oxide varistor?

Explanation

A metal oxide varistor (MOV) is a voltage-dependent resistor that is commonly used to protect electrical circuits from excessive voltage. It is made up of two semiconductors, typically zinc oxide, which are separated by a metal oxide layer. When the voltage across the MOV exceeds a certain threshold, the metal oxide layer breaks down and allows current to flow through the semiconductors, effectively diverting the excess voltage and protecting the circuit. Therefore, the correct answer is 2.

Submit
79. The A/M32A–95 runs up to 60 percent but the battery is not charging. Which is the probable cause of this trouble?

Explanation

The probable cause of this trouble is K3 de-energized and the contacts did not remain closed. This means that the relay K3, which is responsible for energizing the battery, is not functioning properly. Even though it was initially de-energized, it should have remained closed to allow the battery to charge. However, in this case, the contacts did not remain closed, resulting in the battery not being able to charge.

Submit
80. The A/M32A–95 engine cranks but doesn't start. Which is the probable cause of this trouble?

Explanation

The probable cause of the engine cranking but not starting is that the SV1 coil is open. This means that the coil is not functioning properly and is not able to generate the necessary spark to ignite the fuel in the engine. As a result, the engine is unable to start despite the cranking action.

Submit
81. A silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) has this many layers

Explanation

An SCR has four layers. The layers in an SCR are made up of P-type and N-type semiconductor materials. The layers are arranged in a specific order: P-N-P-N. The P-N-P-N structure allows the SCR to act as a switch that can control the flow of current. The four layers enable the SCR to have a high voltage and current handling capacity, making it suitable for applications such as power control and conversion.

Submit
82. This is the purpose of a transistor amplifier

Explanation

A transistor amplifier is designed to control the current flowing to the load. By adjusting the input signal, the transistor can regulate the amount of current that passes through it and therefore control the current delivered to the load. This allows for amplification of the input signal and enables the transistor amplifier to provide the desired current to the load.

Submit
83. This controls the firing time of the unijunction transistor (UJT).

Explanation

The firing time of the unijunction transistor (UJT) is controlled by the resistance and capacitance in the circuit. The resistance determines the rate at which the capacitor charges and discharges, while the capacitance determines the time it takes for the capacitor to reach a certain voltage level. By adjusting the values of resistance and capacitance, the firing time of the UJT can be controlled.

Submit
84. After performing an operational check of the A/M32A–86D generator set, you proceed to shut the unit down. After the generator stops, you notice the engine ON light continues to be illuminated. Which is a probable cause of this trouble?

Explanation

The probable cause of the engine ON light continuing to be illuminated after shutting down the generator is that S48 is closed.

Submit
85. During an operational check of the A/M32A–86D generator set, the shutdown solenoid energizes immediately after the engine run indicator illuminates. Which is a probable cause of this trouble?

Explanation

The probable cause of the shutdown solenoid energizing immediately after the engine run indicator illuminates is that S49 is shorted.

Submit
86. This statement best describes a capacitive circuit

Explanation

A capacitive circuit is characterized by the fact that the current leads the applied voltage by 90 degrees. This means that the current reaches its peak value before the voltage does. This behavior is due to the nature of a capacitor, which stores energy in an electric field and releases it as current. As the voltage across the capacitor increases, the current starts to flow, but it takes some time for the voltage to reach its peak value. Therefore, the current leads the voltage in a capacitive circuit.

Submit
87. This MA–3D air conditioner component provides 24 volts alternating current (VAC) for operation of the temperature controller

Explanation

The Power Monitor Relay (PMR) is the correct answer because it is the component that provides 24 volts alternating current (VAC) for operation of the temperature controller. The other components listed, such as the generator, alternator, and transformer rectifier, are not specifically mentioned as providing the necessary voltage for the temperature controller. Therefore, PMR is the most likely component to fulfill this role.

Submit
88. During operation of the A/M32A–86D generator set, you get no response when you place S13 in the GENERATE position. A check for voltage at J8, terminal N, shows 12 volts direct current (VDC). Which is a probable cause of this trouble?

Explanation

The probable cause of the trouble is that S53 is open. If S53 is open, it means that the switch is not making a connection and is preventing the flow of electricity. As a result, when S13 is placed in the GENERATE position, there is no response because the circuit is incomplete. The 12 volts direct current (VDC) at J8, terminal N, indicates that the power is reaching that point, but it is not able to flow further due to the open switch.

Submit
89. During operation of the A/M32A–86D generator set, the low coolant light (DS50) illuminates, but the generator set does not shut down. Which is a probable cause of this trouble?

Explanation

The low coolant light (DS50) illuminating but the generator set not shutting down can be caused by A2. This suggests that there may be a malfunction or issue with the A2 component of the generator set, which is preventing it from shutting down even when the low coolant light is activated.

Submit
90. You place the MA–3D air conditioner SW1 in the START position, but the engine does not operate. Which is the probable cause of this trouble?

Explanation

The probable cause of the engine not operating when the MA-3D air conditioner SW1 is placed in the START position is that the oil pressure switch is closed. This means that the switch is not allowing the engine to start because it is detecting low or no oil pressure. The engine requires sufficient oil pressure to operate, and if the switch is closed, it indicates a problem with the oil pressure system.
