A normally aspirated engine is one which

• is not fitted with a supercharger or turbocharger

• has a turbocharger but no supercharger

• has a supercharger but no turbocharger

• has both a supercharger and a turbocharger

Work is equal to

• the square root of acceleration

• Force x Distance

• Watts x Force

• Mass x Acceleration

The capacity to do work is

• Power

• Energy

• Torque

• Force

The power output from the crankshaft of a piston engine can be expressed in

• Brake Horsepower

• Indicated Power

• Friction Power

• Maximum Continuous Power

Torque is

• what some IAANZ students do too much of

• a force which produces a turning motion

• measured in Joules

• the capacity to do work

100 HP is equal to approximately how many kiloWatts?

• 75

• 125

• 150

• 175

"Rated Power" is the brake power developed by an engine in good condition under....

• standard conditions and at a stated RPM

• full throttle

• standard conditions and full throttle height

• full throttle and at service ceiling

For a non-supercharged engine, the critical altitude of an aircraft will be close to

• sea level

• full throttle height

• service ceiling

Power is

• the rate of doing work

• equal to Force x Distance

• the capacity to do work

• a turning or twisting force
