At no time will money that is collected for cash sales of aviation products be safeguarded by
-
Fuels service center (FSC) personnel.
-
Shift supervisors.
-
Off-duty personnel.
-
Operations expeditors.
Correct Answer
A. Off-duty personnel.Explanation
Off-duty personnel are employees who are not currently working and are not responsible for safeguarding money collected for cash sales of aviation products. They are not actively involved in the operations of the Fuels service center (FSC) and therefore should not be entrusted with the task of safeguarding the money. Shift supervisors, FSC personnel, and operations expeditors are all actively involved in the operations and can be responsible for safeguarding the money.Rate this question:

The American Petroleum Institute (API) gravity test is most accurate when the fuel temperature is near
-
30°F.
-
50°F.
-
60°F.
-
90°F.
Correct Answer
A. 60°F.Explanation
The API gravity test is used to measure the density of petroleum liquids compared to water. It provides an indication of the quality and type of crude oil. The test is most accurate when the fuel temperature is near 60°F because the API gravity scale is based on this temperature. Deviations from this temperature can affect the accuracy of the test results. Therefore, conducting the test at 60°F ensures the most precise measurement of the fuel's density.Rate this question:

Where is the correct place to take the reading for the American Petroleum Institute (API) gravity test?
-
Horizontal plane surface of the liquid.
-
Bottom of the hydrometer.
-
Top of the hydrometer.
-
Top of the cylinder.
Correct Answer
A. Horizontal plane surface of the liquid.Explanation
The correct place to take the reading for the American Petroleum Institute (API) gravity test is the horizontal plane surface of the liquid. This is because the API gravity test measures the density of petroleum liquids compared to the density of water, and taking the reading at the horizontal plane ensures an accurate measurement of the liquid's density. Taking the reading at the bottom or top of the hydrometer or cylinder would not provide an accurate representation of the liquid's density.Rate this question:

-
Sales support by equipment and/or personnel do not interfere with military operations.
Correct Answer
A. Sales support by equipment and/or personnel do not interfere with military operations.Explanation
Cash sales are only authorized when sales support by equipment and/or personnel do not interfere with military operations. This means that cash sales can only be made if they do not disrupt or hinder any ongoing military activities. This ensures that the military operations are not compromised or compromised in any way. The other options, such as products not being normally stocked or the availability of military exchange facilities or commercial facilities, are not relevant factors in determining the authorization for cash sales in this context.Rate this question:

A conductivity probe is not required to be cleaned before use when the
-
Probe is new.
-
Meter can be zeroed.
-
Probe has been stored in a sealed container.
-
Calibration data has been stamped on the probe.
Correct Answer
A. Meter can be zeroed.Explanation
The correct answer is "meter can be zeroed." When a conductivity probe is new, it does not require cleaning before use because it is assumed to be free from any contaminants. However, before taking measurements, the meter needs to be zeroed to ensure accurate readings. This process involves adjusting the meter to read zero when the probe is in a solution with no conductivity. Cleaning the probe may be necessary after use or if it becomes dirty or contaminated. Storing the probe in a sealed container or having calibration data stamped on it does not eliminate the need for cleaning or zeroing the meter.Rate this question:

A. 9 to 11°F per minute.Explanation
During a flash point test, the sample is heated gradually to determine the temperature at which it emits flammable vapors. The rate of heating should be controlled to ensure accurate results. Applying heat to the sample at a rate of 9 to 11°F per minute allows for a gradual increase in temperature, allowing time for the sample to react and reach its flash point. This rate of heating is considered appropriate for obtaining reliable flash point measurements.Rate this question:

-
5.
-
10.
-
15.
-
20.
Correct Answer
A. 20.Explanation
The Tank Group window in the FuelsManager Defense product movement tracker allows operators to create tabular lists of up to 20 tanks. This means that operators can organize and track information for a maximum of 20 tanks within this window.Rate this question:

When investigating fuel gains and losses, you know that variances in inventory levels may be caused by any of the following conditions except
-
Tank size.
-
Temperature.
-
Mode of delivery.
-
Volume of the product.
Correct Answer
A. Tank size.Explanation
When investigating fuel gains and losses, variances in inventory levels can be caused by various factors such as temperature, mode of delivery, and volume of the product. However, tank size does not directly affect the inventory levels as it only determines the capacity of the tank to hold the fuel. The inventory levels can still vary due to other factors even if the tank size remains constant. Therefore, tank size is the exception among the given conditions that may cause variances in inventory levels.Rate this question:

How often do you test a liquid oxygen (LOX) generating plant for odor and purity if a LOX production run will exceed 24 hours?
-
Every 3 hours.
-
Every 6 hours.
-
Every 12 hours.
-
Every 24 hours.
Correct Answer
A. Every 24 hours.Explanation
The correct answer is Every 24 hours. This is because testing the odor and purity of a liquid oxygen (LOX) generating plant is crucial for ensuring its safety and effectiveness. However, conducting the test every 3, 6, or 12 hours would be too frequent and may not be necessary unless there are specific concerns or issues. Testing every 24 hours strikes a balance between ensuring the quality of the LOX production and minimizing unnecessary interruptions to the production process.Rate this question:

When performing the bottle method test, the flow reducer ring is not used for testing what type of fuel?
-
JP–8.
-
JP–7.
-
JP–5.
-
JP–4.
Correct Answer
A. JP–5.Explanation
The flow reducer ring is used in the bottle method test to control the flow rate of the fuel being tested. Since the flow reducer ring is not used for testing JP-5 fuel, it can be inferred that JP-5 is the correct answer.Rate this question:
