Answer 6

Disconnected

Question 7

Flange-mounted magnetos are attached to the engine by a flange around the driven end of the rotating shaft of the magneto.

Answer 7

Magneto mounting system

Question 8

The number of lines of flux that loop through a mag­net is an indication of a magnet’s strength. One line of flux is called one.

Answer 8

Maxwell

Question 9

What is the meaning of EMF?

Answer 9

Electromotive Force

Question 10

A type of starter with a kinetic energy is energy possessed by a body by virtue of its state of motion, which may be movement along a line or spinning action. In the inertia starter, energy is stored slowly during an energizing process by a manual hand crank or electrically with a small motor.

Answer 10

Inertia Starter

2.Direct hand cranking
3.Pullcord
4.Coffman
5.Electrical
6.Pneumatic
7.DC electric motor
8.Starter generator

Question 24

Two ways to complete the primary circuit

Answer 24

1.Through close breaker points to ground.
2.Through close ignition switch to ground.

Question 25

In the inertia starter, energy is stored slowly during an energizing process by a manual hand crank or electrically with a small motor.

Answer 25

TRUE

Question 26

The starter must turn the engine up to a speed that provides enough electricity through the engine for fuel to be ignited. Then, the starter must continue to help the engine accelerate to a self-sustaining speed. Turbine engine starters have a critical role in starting of the engine.

Answer 26

FALSE

Question 27

If the starter turns the turbine engine up to a self-sustaining speed, the engine start process will not be successful.

Answer 27

TRUE

Question 28

A starter is an electromechanical mechanism capable of developing large amounts of mechanical energy that can be applied to an engine, causing it to rotate. Reciprocating engines need only to be turned through at a relatively slow speed until the engine starts and turns on its own

Answer 28

TRUE
