The differential ensures that each wheel is driven at a speed which corresponds to the distance it must travel around a corner, and it consequently prevents against excessive tyre wear.
5. The driveshafts are connected to the differential and wheel hubs through universal joints because the universal joints
Options
A. absorb the vibrations transferred from the surface of the road
B. compensate for variations in the relative positions of the differential and the wheels which result from bumpy road surfaces or other similar driving conditions.
C. absorb any difference in speed between the left and right wheels when the vehicle is turning
Correct Answer: compensate for variations in the relative positions of the differential and the wheels which result from bumpy road surfaces or other similar driving conditions.
6. The braking control type traction control system (TCS) generally operates in the speed range of
Correct Answer: turning radius of the left and right wheels
10. The function of oil-control rings is that it
Options
A. lubricates the cylinder wall by releasing oil from its hole
B. keeps the cylinder wall lubricated by holding oil in its channel
C. prevents engine oil from going into the combustion chamber and returns excess lubricating oil off the cylinder wall through the return holes in the piston to the oil pan
D. maintains a seal and prevents escape of burned gases and oil leakage
Correct Answer: prevents engine oil from going into the combustion chamber and returns excess lubricating oil off the cylinder wall through the return holes in the piston to the oil pan
