FINAL EXAM ANSWERS
Continued from page 16 1. The correct answer is A. Magnetic fields produced by the metal and electrical accessories in the aircraft disturb the compass needle and produce errors. Deviation can vary on different headings, but can be compensated for by referring to the compass correction card. (Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, Chapter 7) 2. The correct answer is B. The carburetion process can lower the temperature of the incoming air as much as 60 degrees F. In ambient temperatures greater than 95 degrees, carburetor ice is unlikely to form; however, with visible moisture or high relative humidity, and ambient temperatures under 95 degrees, carburetor ice is possible. (Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, Chapter 6) 3. The correct answer is B. Engine power output is measured on a manifold pressure gauge and controlled by the throttle while engine RPM is read on the tachometer and adjusted by the propeller control. Mixture is adjusted in the same way as with a fixed pitch propeller to achieve the desired fuel flow. (Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, Chapter 6) 4. The correct answer is C. Empty weight includes the airframe, engine, propeller, installed standard and optional equipment, hydraulic fluid, fixed ballast, unusable fuel, and usually full engine oil. (Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, Chapter 4) 5. The correct answer is C. By definition, the center of gravity is the total moment of the aircraft divided by its total weight. Moment is the position of the weight from the datum multiplied by that weight. (Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, Chapter 9) 6. The correct answer is B. The basic rule, absent any specific manufacturer recommendations, is to avoid running with a power setting “over square.” That is, keep the manifold pressure, in inches, equal to or lower than the RPM, in hundreds. Basically, avoid high manifold pressure settings with low RPMs. (Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, Chapter 6) 7. The correct answer is C. The application of carburetor heat reduces the density of air entering the carburetor because the air is warmer. As a result, it enriches the fuel/air mixture because there is no change in the weight of fuel being burned. (Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, Chapter 6) 8. The correct answer is C. Unlike the VNE red line or the VSO white arc, the maneuvering speed (VA) is not color coded on an airspeed indicator. It is typically placarded and included in the airplane’s flight manual. (Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, Chapter 7)
