-
All battery current must flow through the Primary Master Switch
-
More than one battery packs may be used
-
Lithium Iron Phosphate based batteries can be custom made
-
The terminals may not be insulated
Correct Answer
A. The terminals may not be insulatedExplanation
The statement "The terminals may not be insulated" is not true about the vehicle battery. The terminals of a vehicle battery are typically insulated to prevent any accidental contact with metal objects or other electrical components, which could cause a short circuit or other electrical hazards. Insulation helps to ensure the safe operation of the battery and prevents any potential damage or accidents.Rate this question:

Which of these is not required to be brought to the Technical Inspection?
-
Push Bar
-
Team Captain
-
All the Drivers
-
Fire Extinguishers
Correct Answer
A. Team CaptainExplanation
The team captain is not required to be brought to the Technical Inspection. The Technical Inspection is typically conducted to ensure that the vehicle and its equipment meet the required safety standards and regulations. The team captain, although an important member of the team, is not directly related to the vehicle's safety or technical specifications. Therefore, they do not need to be present during the Technical Inspection.Rate this question:

Which of these fasteners are not permitted?
-
Hexagonal recessed drive bolts
-
Lock washers
-
Cotter pins
-
Correctly installed safety wiring
Correct Answer
A. Lock washersExplanation
Lock washers are not permitted because they can cause damage to the fastener or the material being fastened. They are designed to create tension and prevent loosening of the fastener, but they can also create stress concentrations and weaken the joint. Therefore, lock washers should not be used in critical applications where reliability and safety are paramount. Alternative methods such as thread-locking compounds or double-nuts should be used instead.Rate this question:

A compressed gas cylinder may be mounted at which of these locations?
-
The main hoop
-
Main hoop Bracing
-
Cockpit
-
Jacking Bar
Correct Answer
A. Main hoop BracingExplanation
A compressed gas cylinder may be mounted at the main hoop bracing. The main hoop bracing provides a strong and secure structure to support the weight of the gas cylinder. This location ensures that the cylinder is well-protected and minimizes the risk of damage or accidents. Additionally, mounting the gas cylinder at the main hoop bracing allows for easy access and maintenance when needed.Rate this question:

The side impact zone extends from _______ to ________
-
Top of the floor to 300 mm above the ground
-
300 to 350 mm above the ground
-
Top of the floor to 13.8 inches above the ground
-
More than 300 mm above the ground
Correct Answer
A. Top of the floor to 13.8 inches above the groundExplanation
The side impact zone extends from the top of the floor to 13.8 inches above the ground. This means that in the event of a side impact collision, the area of the vehicle that is designed to absorb and distribute the impact forces is located between the top of the floor and 13.8 inches above the ground. This specific range is determined based on safety standards and regulations to ensure maximum protection for the occupants of the vehicle.Rate this question:

The Formula SAE Standard for the Hydraulic Hoses is
-
J517
-
J512
-
J571
-
J157
Correct Answer
A. J517Explanation
The correct answer is J517. This is the standard set by the Formula SAE for hydraulic hoses. It specifies the requirements for hydraulic hoses used in automotive applications, including dimensions, performance, and testing methods. Compliance with this standard ensures that the hydraulic hoses used in Formula SAE vehicles meet the necessary safety and performance standards.Rate this question:

The time allowed to restart the car after it stalls on track during endurance run is
-
1 minute
-
One lap by the car that is following it
-
2 minutes
-
5 minutes
Correct Answer
A. One lap by the car that is following itExplanation
The correct answer is one lap by the car that is following it. This means that if a car stalls on the track during an endurance run, it is given the time it takes for the car behind it to complete one lap in order to restart the car and continue the race. This rule ensures that the stalled car has a fair chance to restart without causing significant delays or disruptions to the race.Rate this question:

The maximum restrictor diameters for Gasoline and E-85 fuelled cars are
-
0.7874 and 0.7840 inches
-
0.7784 and 0.7480 inches
-
0.7874 and 0.7480 inches
-
0.7480 and 0.7874 inches
Correct Answer
A. 0.7874 and 0.7480 inchesExplanation
The correct answer is 0.7874 and 0.7480 inches. This answer is determined by comparing the given values for the maximum restrictor diameters for Gasoline and E-85 fuelled cars. The first value of 0.7874 inches corresponds to the maximum restrictor diameter for Gasoline fuelled cars, while the second value of 0.7480 inches corresponds to the maximum restrictor diameter for E-85 fuelled cars.Rate this question:
