Dimensioning and Tolerancing Notes Quiz

What is the definition of interchangeable?

• Parts that are made to fit mating parts easily without additional machining at the time of assembly.

• The measured size.

• The size to which allowances and tolerances are added to get the limits of size.

• A designation used for general identification.

What is the definition of actual size?

• Parts that are made to easily fit mating parts without additional machining at the time of assembly.

• The measured size.

• The size to which allowances and tolerances are added to get the limits of size.

• A designation used for general identification.

What is the definition of basic size?

• Parts that are made to easily fit mating parts without additional machining at the time of assembly.

• The measured size.

• The size to which allowances and tolerances are added to get the limits of size.

• A designation used for general identification.

What is the definition of nominal size?

• Parts that are made to fit mating parts easily without additional machining at the time of assembly.

• The measured size.

• The size to which allowances and tolerances are added to get the limits of size.

• A designation used for general identification.

What is the definition of design size?

• Parts that are made to fit mating parts easily without additional machining at the time of assembly.

• The measured size.

• The size to which allowances and tolerances are added to get the limits of size.

• A designation used for general identification.

What is the definition of tolerance?

• The total amount a single dimension can vary. It is the difference between the upper and lower limits.

• Allowance is the minimum clearance or maximum interference intended between the maximum material condition (MMC) of mating parts.

• A tolerancing method that shows the maximum and minimum size values.

• A tolerance that allows variation in one direction.

What is the definition of an allowance?

• The total amount by which a single dimension can vary. This is the difference between the upper and lower limits.

• Allowance is the minimum clearance or maximum interference intended between the maximum material condition (MMC) of mating parts.

• A tolerancing method that shows the maximum and minimum size values.

• A tolerance that allows variation in one direction only.

What is the definition of limit dimensions?

• The total amount a single dimension can vary. It is the difference between the upper and lower limits.

• Allowance is the minimum clearance or maximum interference intended between the maximum material condition (MMC) of mating parts.

• A tolerancing method that shows the maximum and minimum size values.

• A tolerance that allows variation in one direction only.

What is the definition of unilateral tolerance?

• A tolerance that allows variation in one direction.

• A tolerance that allows variation in both directions from the design size.

• A fit between mating parts having limits of size so prescribed that a clearance always results in assembly.

• A fit between mating parts having limits of size so prescribed that interference always results in assembly.

What is the definition of bilateral tolerance?

• A tolerance that allows variation in one direction.

• A tolerance that allows variation in both directions from the design size.

• A fit between mating parts having limits of size so prescribed that a clearance always results in assembly.

• A fit between mating parts having limits of size so prescribed that interference always results in assembly.
