Corrosion is the deterioration
-
Of a material due to an electrochemical or biochemical reaction.
-
Of a material caused by its reaction with wind, rain, and dirt.
-
Of a material caused by a reaction with the environment.
-
Caused by an electrochemical action.
Correct Answer
A. Of a material caused by a reaction with the environment.Explanation
The correct answer is "of a material caused by a reaction with the environment." This is because corrosion refers to the deterioration of a material, and this deterioration is caused by its reaction with the environment. The environment can include factors such as moisture, oxygen, temperature, and chemicals, which can all contribute to the corrosion process.Rate this question:

Which of the following can cause biochemical corrosion?
-
Secreted corrosive fluids that can corrode the surface beneath the growth.
-
Fungus which holds moisture which then causes corrosion.
-
Moisture which can stress mechanical joints.
-
Both A & B.
Correct Answer
A. Both A & B.Explanation
Both A and B can cause biochemical corrosion. Secreted corrosive fluids from organisms can corrode the surface beneath their growth, while fungus that holds moisture can also lead to corrosion. Therefore, the combination of both factors can contribute to biochemical corrosion.Rate this question:

Which type of corrosion do fungi and waste products from animals and insects cause?
-
Biochemical
-
Biological
-
Galvanic
-
Acerbic
Correct Answer
A. BiochemicalExplanation
Fungi and waste products from animals and insects cause biochemical corrosion. This type of corrosion occurs when biological agents, such as microorganisms, break down organic materials and produce corrosive byproducts. These byproducts can react with metals and other materials, leading to corrosion. Therefore, the correct answer is biochemical.Rate this question:

Which is often found in moisture and can accelerate the corrosive effect?
-
Chlorides
-
Sulfates
-
Nitrates
-
All of the above
Correct Answer
A. All of the aboveExplanation
All of the above options, chlorides, sulfates, and nitrates, are often found in moisture and can accelerate the corrosive effect. Moisture can act as a catalyst for corrosion, and these substances, when present in the moisture, can further enhance the corrosive process. Chlorides, sulfates, and nitrates are all highly reactive and can promote the breakdown of metal surfaces, leading to accelerated corrosion. Therefore, all three options can contribute to the corrosive effect when present in moisture.Rate this question:

Which type of corrosion is usually the principal form of attack on ESD-sensitive equipment?
-
Uniform surface
-
Galvanic
-
Pitting
-
Stress
Correct Answer
A. GalvanicExplanation
Galvanic corrosion is the most common form of attack on ESD-sensitive equipment. Galvanic corrosion occurs when two dissimilar metals are in contact with each other in the presence of an electrolyte, such as moisture. The difference in electrical potential between the two metals leads to the transfer of electrons, causing corrosion on the less noble metal. In the case of ESD-sensitive equipment, the different metals used in its construction can create a galvanic cell, leading to corrosion and potential damage to the equipment.Rate this question:

What is the most important element of the CPCP?
-
Preventative maintenance inspections
-
Corrosion identification
-
Corrosion removal
-
Correct packaging
Correct Answer
A. Preventative maintenance inspectionsExplanation
The most important element of the CPCP is preventative maintenance inspections. These inspections help identify potential issues before they become major problems, allowing for timely repairs and maintenance. By regularly inspecting the equipment and systems, any signs of corrosion or other issues can be detected early on, preventing costly damages and ensuring the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the CPCP.Rate this question:

What is used to remove fingerprints from printed circuit boards?
-
50% isopropyl alcohol and 50% distilled water
-
Commercial cleaners
-
Nail polish remover
-
Emory paper
Correct Answer
A. 50% isopropyl alcohol and 50% distilled waterExplanation
The correct answer is 50% isopropyl alcohol and 50% distilled water. Isopropyl alcohol is commonly used as a cleaning agent for electronic components because it evaporates quickly and leaves no residue. By diluting it with distilled water, it becomes a milder solution that can effectively remove fingerprints from printed circuit boards without causing damage. Commercial cleaners may contain harsh chemicals that can be harmful to the circuit board. Nail polish remover contains acetone, which can also damage the board. Emory paper is an abrasive material used for sanding and would not be suitable for removing fingerprints.Rate this question:

What type of cleaner removes heavy dirt and oil?
-
Acid
-
Solvent
-
Alkaline
-
Detergent
Correct Answer
A. SolventExplanation
A solvent is a type of cleaner that is effective in removing heavy dirt and oil. Solvents are substances that have the ability to dissolve or break down other substances, including dirt and oil. They work by breaking the bonds between the dirt and oil particles, allowing them to be easily wiped or rinsed away. Solvents are commonly used in industrial and commercial cleaning applications where heavy dirt and oil buildup is common, such as in automotive and manufacturing industries.Rate this question:

Which type of bag is best for storing circuit boards?
-
ESD Protective
-
Brown paper
-
Wax coated
-
Plastic
Correct Answer
A. ESD ProtectiveExplanation
ESD Protective bags are the best option for storing circuit boards. ESD stands for Electrostatic Discharge, which refers to the sudden flow of electricity between two electrically charged objects. Circuit boards are sensitive to ESD and can be damaged if not properly protected. ESD Protective bags are designed to prevent the buildup and discharge of static electricity, providing a safe environment for storing circuit boards. This helps to ensure their integrity and functionality. Brown paper, wax coated, and plastic bags do not offer the same level of protection against ESD, making them less suitable for storing circuit boards.Rate this question:

Pitting corrosion can be characterized as
-
Cracking caused by stress.
-
The most common form of corrosion.
-
Tiny holes in aluminum or magnesium.
-
Worm-like tracings under a protective coating.
Correct Answer
A. Tiny holes in aluminum or magnesium.Explanation
Pitting corrosion is a type of corrosion that occurs when localized damage, such as small holes or pits, forms on the surface of aluminum or magnesium. This type of corrosion is often caused by factors such as exposure to corrosive substances or a breakdown in the protective coating. Pitting corrosion can be particularly problematic as it can lead to further degradation of the material and compromise its structural integrity. Therefore, the correct answer is "tiny holes in aluminum or magnesium."Rate this question:

Filiform corrosion can be characterized as
-
Cracking caused by stress.
-
The most common form of corrosion.
-
Tiny holes in aluminum or magnesium.
-
Worm-like tracings under a protective coating.
Correct Answer
A. Worm-like tracings under a protective coating.Explanation
Filiform corrosion refers to the formation of worm-like tracings under a protective coating. This type of corrosion occurs when moisture penetrates the coating and reacts with the metal surface, leading to the formation of filaments that resemble worms. It is commonly observed in aluminum or magnesium materials and can cause damage to the protective coating and the underlying metal.Rate this question:

Which type of corrosion may occur if an antenna is attached to a tower using incorrectly sized bolts?
-
Stress
-
Pitting
-
Fatigue
-
Both A and C
Correct Answer
A. Both A and CExplanation
If an antenna is attached to a tower using incorrectly sized bolts, it can lead to both stress corrosion and fatigue corrosion. Stress corrosion occurs when a material is subjected to tensile stress and a corrosive environment, causing cracks and failure. In this case, the incorrect size of bolts can create stress on the antenna and tower, leading to stress corrosion. Fatigue corrosion, on the other hand, occurs when a material is subjected to repeated stress cycles, causing cracks and failure over time. The incorrect size of bolts can also contribute to fatigue corrosion as the antenna and tower are constantly subjected to stress from wind, vibrations, and other external factors.Rate this question:
