Re: mechanical aptitude

I didn't beat you. Only got 80% and I'm intrigued now which I got wrong too.

Re: mechanical aptitude

I was doing ok but stopped understanding the questions when I got to question 8 - I'm not mechanically minded!

Re: mechanical aptitude

I can't help querying the answer to number 8. The correct answer just doesn't seem physically possible to me.

Re: mechanical aptitude

I started doing it but when I saw there were 50 questions I decided I could not be bothered. That and having to sort out stuff tonight for school tomorrow with Rhonda being in hospital over night having her lobotomy reversed.

Re: mechanical aptitude

I only got 46% so not very good.

I'm not good at those sort of questions.

Re: mechanical aptitude

Don't read this if you still want to try the quiz. If you've already done it then please scroll down.




















OK, did anyone get No8 right because I just don't see how those gears could keep turning, surely they would all be stopped if the ring gear is stopped. The cogs are interlocking so once one stops it must stop the one that locks into it.
