    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Any small piece of metal should be ___________ in a vice or onto a drill press table, while drilling.

    • A.

      Clean

    • B.

      Oiled

    • C.

      Clamped

    • D.

      Held

    Correct Answer
    C. Clamped
    Explanation
    When drilling a small piece of metal, it is important to secure it in place to ensure stability and accuracy. Clamping the metal in a vice or onto a drill press table provides a strong and secure hold, preventing it from moving or rotating during the drilling process. This allows the drill to penetrate the metal accurately without causing any damage or misalignment. Therefore, clamping is the correct choice to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the drilling operation.

    Oily rags should be placed in the

    • A.

      Trash can

    • B.

      Federal safety red, closed metal container

    • C.

      Open metal container

    Correct Answer
    B. Federal safety red, closed metal container
    Explanation
    Oily rags should be placed in a federal safety red, closed metal container because oily rags can pose a fire hazard. Oils and solvents on the rags can oxidize and generate heat, which can lead to spontaneous combustion. Placing them in a closed metal container helps to contain any potential fire and prevent it from spreading. The federal safety red color is used to indicate that the container holds potentially hazardous materials.

    One type of approved eye protection would be:

    • A.

      Sunglasses

    • B.

      Corrective lens glasses

    • C.

      Safety glasses

    • D.

      All of the above

    Correct Answer
    C. Safety glasses
    Explanation
    Safety glasses are a type of approved eye protection because they are specifically designed to protect the eyes from potential hazards in various environments. They are made with impact-resistant materials and often have side shields to provide additional protection. Safety glasses are commonly used in industrial settings, construction sites, and laboratories to protect against flying debris, chemicals, and other potential eye hazards. Sunglasses and corrective lens glasses may provide some level of eye protection but they are not specifically designed or approved for the same level of protection as safety glasses.

Using a different tool or continuing to use the malfunctioning one can be dangerous and should be avoided. Throwing it away is not a viable solution as it may be repairable or need to be inspected for safety reasons.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    Which single category fire extinguisher would likely do more harm than good on a gasoline fire?

    • A.

      A

    • B.

      B

    • C.

      C

    • D.

      Any of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. A
    Explanation
    Category A fire extinguishers are designed to extinguish ordinary combustible fires, such as those caused by wood or paper. However, they are not effective on flammable liquid fires, such as gasoline fires. In fact, using a category A fire extinguisher on a gasoline fire can cause the fire to spread or become more intense, leading to more harm than good. Therefore, option A would likely do more harm than good on a gasoline fire.

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    If the lights go out

    • A.

      Keep working

    • B.

      Crawl under a table

    • C.

      Wait for your machine to stop before moving

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    C. Wait for your machine to stop before moving
    Explanation
    The correct answer is to wait for your machine to stop before moving. This is because if the lights go out, it is important to prioritize safety and avoid any potential accidents or injuries. By waiting for the machine to stop, you can ensure that it is no longer in motion and reduce the risk of tripping or getting caught in any moving parts. It is always better to be cautious and patient in such situations.

    If you get something in your eye

    • A.

      Rub it

    • B.

      Have a friend wipe it with a paper towel

    • C.

      Use the eye wash to rinse your eyes

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    C. Use the eye wash to rinse your eyes
    Explanation
    When something gets into your eye, the best course of action is to use an eye wash to rinse your eyes. This helps to flush out any foreign particles or irritants that may be present in the eye. Rubbing the eye can potentially worsen the situation by causing further irritation or damage. Having a friend wipe it with a paper towel may also cause more harm than good as they may accidentally scratch the eye. Therefore, the safest and most effective option is to use an eye wash to rinse the eye.

    When connecting the battery on a negative ground vehicle, you should attach the ____________________.  The answer is Positive cable first and negative cable last! Just something good to know! You're welcome!

    • A.

      Negative cable first and the positive cable last.

    • B.

      Red cables, every time, to positive battery terminal.

    • C.

      Positive cable first and the negative cable last

    • D.

      The positive cable to the engine block.

    Correct Answer
    C. Positive cable first and the negative cable last
    Explanation
    When connecting the battery on a negative ground vehicle, it is important to attach the positive cable first and the negative cable last. This is because connecting the positive cable first reduces the risk of short circuits and sparks, as the negative cable is grounded and any accidental contact with metal surfaces will not cause a spark. Additionally, connecting the negative cable last ensures that the electrical system is properly grounded before completing the circuit.

    The most common route of exposure for most health hazards is          .

    • A.

      Ingestion

    • B.

      Skin absorption

    • C.

      Inhalation

    Correct Answer
    C. Inhalation
    Explanation
    The most common route of exposure for most health hazards is inhalation. This means that the hazards are typically breathed in through the respiratory system, such as through the nose or mouth. Inhaling hazardous substances can lead to various health issues, as the substances can enter the bloodstream and affect different organs and systems in the body. Inhalation is a common route of exposure because it allows for direct entry of the hazards into the body, bypassing other protective barriers like the skin or digestive system.

Safety glasses provide a protective barrier and help prevent any eye injuries that may occur during the operation. Wearing safety glasses ensures the operator's safety and reduces the risk of eye damage.

    • A.

      Baking Powder

    • B.

      Alcohol

    • C.

      Water

      Oxygen

    If you had just a Type A fire extinguisher for a Wood-Paper-Trash fire, it would most likely just contain water. Type A fire extinguishers are designed to extinguish fires involving ordinary combustible materials such as wood, paper, and trash. Water is an effective agent for suppressing these types of fires by cooling the fuel and reducing the temperature below its ignition point. It works by absorbing heat and creating a barrier between the fuel and oxygen, thus preventing the fire from spreading.
