What component on the New Generation Heater activates the heater control unit(HCU)?
Correct Answer
A. Heat control switch
Explanation
The heat control switch is the component on the New Generation Heater that activates the heater control unit (HCU). When the heat control switch is turned on, it sends a signal to the HCU to start the heating process. This switch allows the user to control the temperature and turn the heater on or off as desired.

Heat that can be felt, and added or subtracted to a substance without changing its state is called
Correct Answer
D. Sensible heat
Explanation
Sensible heat refers to the heat that can be felt and added or subtracted to a substance without causing a change in its state. It is the heat that affects the temperature of an object or substance, and can be measured using a thermometer. Sensible heat is different from latent heat, which is the heat absorbed or released during a phase change, and specific heat, which is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by one degree Celsius.
11.
The heat that changes the state of a substance, yet does not affect the temperature is called
Correct Answer
B. Latent heat
Explanation
Latent heat refers to the heat energy absorbed or released during a phase change of a substance, such as from solid to liquid or liquid to gas, without changing its temperature. This heat is used to break or form intermolecular bonds between particles, causing the substance to change its state. Unlike sensible heat, which affects the temperature of a substance, latent heat does not cause a change in temperature but is responsible for the transformation between different states of matter.
12.
Heat added to a gaseous substance is known as
Correct Answer
A. Super heat
Explanation
Superheat refers to the heat added to a gaseous substance above its boiling point or saturation temperature. This occurs when the substance is heated beyond its phase change point, causing it to exist in a gaseous state at a higher temperature than its boiling point. Superheating is commonly used in industrial processes to increase the efficiency of heat transfer or to prevent condensation in steam systems.
13.
A good refigerant would

Correct Answer
B. Condenser coils
Explanation
After the refrigerant leaves the compressor, it flows through the condenser coils. The condenser coils are responsible for releasing heat from the refrigerant to the surrounding air. As the refrigerant flows through these coils, it undergoes a phase change from a high-pressure gas to a high-pressure liquid. This process allows the refrigerant to release the heat it absorbed from the indoor air during the cooling cycle. Therefore, the condenser coils play a crucial role in the heat exchange process of an air conditioner.
16.
The temperature controller on the MA-3D air conditioner modulates the water flow through what component during low ambient air temperatures?
Correct Answer
A. Aftercooler coils
Explanation
During low ambient air temperatures, the temperature controller on the MA-3D air conditioner modulates the water flow through the aftercooler coils. Aftercooler coils are responsible for cooling down the compressed air after it passes through the compressor. By modulating the water flow through these coils, the temperature controller can effectively control the cooling process and maintain the desired temperature in the air conditioner. This ensures optimal performance and energy efficiency, especially in low ambient air temperature conditions.
17.
When starting the MA-3D air conditioner, hold the safety override switch until
Correct Answer
D. 30 psi oil pressure is registered on the engine oil pressure gauge
Explanation
The correct answer is "30 psi oil pressure is registered on the engine oil pressure gauge." This is because the air conditioner should only be started once the engine has reached a sufficient oil pressure of 30 psi. This ensures that the engine is properly lubricated and ready to operate the air conditioner. Holding the safety override switch until this pressure is registered helps prevent any potential damage or issues that may occur if the air conditioner is started without adequate oil pressure.
18.
What component on the MA-3D air conditioner shuts off the compressors when refrigerant pressure entering the evaproator coil reaches 5 psi?

Inward leaks can lead to a loss of refrigerant and a decrease in the system's efficiency.
21.
The refrigerant on the air conditioner is always removed through the
Correct Answer
C. Receiver outlet valve
Explanation
The receiver outlet valve is the correct answer because it is responsible for removing the refrigerant from the air conditioner. The receiver is a storage tank that holds excess refrigerant, and the outlet valve allows for the controlled release of the refrigerant from the receiver. This valve ensures that the refrigerant is properly expelled from the system, preventing any potential damage or inefficiencies.
22.
The air cycle machine of an A/M32C-10D air condition consists of
Correct Answer
D. An expansion turbine and an air compressor fan
Explanation
The correct answer is an expansion turbine and an air compressor fan. An air cycle machine is a type of air conditioning system used in aircraft. It consists of an expansion turbine, which is responsible for cooling the air by expanding it, and an air compressor fan, which compresses the air and circulates it through the system. The expansion turbine helps to cool the air, while the air compressor fan ensures proper circulation. Both components are essential for the functioning of the air cycle machine.

On the MC-2A rotary sliding vane compressor, what forces the oil through the oil cooler?
Correct Answer
D. Second stage air pressure
Explanation
The second stage air pressure forces the oil through the oil cooler in the MC-2A rotary sliding vane compressor. This is because the air pressure in the second stage creates a pressure differential that pushes the oil through the cooler, allowing it to be cooled before returning to the compressor.
29.
What is the output of the MC-2A rotary sliding vane compressor?
Correct Answer
D. Low volume, low pressure
Explanation
The output of the MC-2A rotary sliding vane compressor is low volume, low pressure. This means that it delivers a relatively small amount of compressed air at a low pressure level.
30.
The valves on a reciprocating compressor are operated by
Correct Answer
B. Air pressure
Explanation
The valves on a reciprocating compressor are operated by air pressure. This means that the air pressure within the compressor is used to open and close the valves, allowing the intake and discharge of air. As the air pressure increases, it pushes the valves open, allowing the air to enter or exit the compressor. Conversely, when the air pressure decreases, the valves close, preventing the air from escaping. Therefore, the correct answer is air pressure.

Correct Answer
B. You tools are free of grease and oil and the cart is drained
Explanation
Before performing maintenance on a liquid oxygen (LOX) cart, it is important to ensure that your tools are free of grease and oil and the cart is drained. This is crucial because LOX is highly reactive and can cause combustion when it comes into contact with flammable substances such as grease and oil. By ensuring that your tools are free of grease and oil, you minimize the risk of accidental ignition. Additionally, draining the cart ensures that there is no residual LOX present, further reducing the risk of combustion during maintenance.
38.
The self generating nitrogen servicing cart (SGNSC) is categorized as a
Correct Answer
A. High-pressure air compressor
Explanation
The self-generating nitrogen servicing cart (SGNSC) is categorized as a high-pressure air compressor because it is designed to generate and deliver nitrogen at high pressures. Unlike low-pressure air compressors, which typically operate at pressures below 100 psi, the SGNSC is capable of producing nitrogen at pressures exceeding 100 psi, making it suitable for high-pressure applications such as aircraft maintenance and servicing.
