The sergeant was commended for his unwavering fidelity to the unit during challenging field operations. Which word is the closest synonym for fidelity?

flexibility

treachery

loyalty

fragility

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: loyalty

Cevap

loyalty

The word 'fidelity' originates from the Latin root 'fid' (fides), meaning 'faith' or 'trust'. When combined with the noun suffix '-ity', it defines the quality of being faithful and steadfast. Therefore, 'loyalty' is the accurate synonym.

Root word decomposition uncovers the core conceptual meaning of the target term.

2

Analyze the suffix and synthesize the literal definition

The abstract noun suffix '-ity' expresses a state or quality, producing 'the quality of being faithful or trustworthy'.

Combining the base morpheme with its grammatical affix yields the precise definition.

A maintenance crew is scheduled to overhaul a radar system. The procedure consists of three sequential phases: diagnostics taking $1$ hour and $45$ minutes, component replacement taking $2$ hours and $30$ minutes, and recalibration taking $55$ minutes. If the crew begins the overhaul at $0920$ hours, at what time will the entire procedure be completed?

hours

1350

hours

1430

hours

1436

hours

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $1430$ hours

Cevap

The entire procedure will be completed at

1430

hours.

The total duration of the three phases is 310 minutes, which converts to exactly 5 hours and 10 minutes. When you add this elapsed time to the starting clock time of 0920 hours, the final completion time correctly evaluates to 1430 hours.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Convert the duration of all three phases into minutes to standardize the units.

Phase 1: 1 hour 45 minutes = 105 minutes. Phase 2: 2 hours 30 minutes = 150 minutes. Phase 3: 55 minutes.

Converting all times to a single unit prevents base-60 addition errors across mixed units.

2

Calculate the total duration of the overhaul by summing the minutes.

105 + 150 + 55 = 310 minutes.

The total time required is the sum of all individual phases.

3

Convert the total duration back into hours and minutes.

310 minutes divided by 60 equals 5 hours with a remainder of 10 minutes (5 hours and 10 minutes).

You must express the total elapsed time in hours and minutes to add it directly to a clock time.

4

Add the total duration to the starting time of 0920 hours.

0920 + 5 hours = 1420 hours; 1420 hours + 10 minutes = 1430 hours.

Adding the elapsed time to the initial clock time determines the final completion time.

Anahtar Kavram

Calculating total elapsed time by converting between minutes and hours (using a base-60 system) and applying it to a 24-hour military clock.

Alternatif Yöntem

Instead of converting to minutes, you can group the hours and minutes separately: Add the whole hours (1 hour + 2 hours = 3 hours). Then add the minutes (45 + 30 + 55 = 130 minutes). Convert the 130 minutes to 2 hours and 10 minutes, and combine this with the 3 hours to get a total duration of 5 hours and 10 minutes.

Technicians were warned that a perfunctory inspection of the hydraulic seals was unacceptable; conversely, standard operating protocol required an exhaustive, in-depth diagnostic before authorizing flight clearance. In the sentence above, what is the meaning of the underlined word perfunctory?

Thorough and rigorously detailed

Carried out with minimal effort or attention

Operating at full functional capacity

Inherently hazardous and damaging

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Carried out with minimal effort or attention

Cevap

Carried out with minimal effort or attention

The sentence contrasts an unacceptable 'perfunctory' inspection with a mandatory 'exhaustive, in-depth diagnostic' using the transitional adverb 'conversely'. Because these two ideas represent opposing qualities, 'perfunctory' means careless, superficial, or executed with minimal effort.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Locate the contrast transition marker and the opposing description.

The word 'conversely' signals that the condition in the second half ('exhaustive, in-depth diagnostic') is the opposite of a 'perfunctory' inspection.

Antonym context clues rely on contrast markers to highlight opposing characteristics between clauses.

2

Determine the antonym of the descriptive phrase to deduce the definition of the target word.

The opposite of 'exhaustive' and 'in-depth' is superficial, hasty, or done with minimal care.

Match each sentence containing the polysemous word "render" with the definition that accurately reflects its contextual meaning.

Soldaki öğeye tıklayın, sonra eşleşen sağdaki öğeye tıklayın

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The sentence describing navigation failure matches 'To cause someone or something to be in a specified state or condition'; the jury sentence matches 'To formally submit, deliver, or declare an official legal judgment'; the field clinic sentence matches 'To provide, furnish, or administer a service or assistance'; and the leather workshop sentence matches 'To melt down and clarify animal fat by applying thermal heat'.

The polysemous verb 'render' shifts meaning across distinct technical and professional domains: the electrical context uses the causative sense of making something inoperative, the courtroom context uses the legal sense of delivering a formal verdict, the field clinic context denotes administering aid, and the hide-curing context uses the material processing sense of extracting fat with heat.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze the contextual modifier 'completely inoperative' in the first sentence.

The equipment transitioned from functioning to non-functioning due to the surge.

This establishes that 'render' is functioning as a causative transitive verb meaning 'to cause to become'.

2

Examine the legal domain and object 'a final verdict' in the second sentence.

Juries deliver and formally pronounce findings of law and fact at the conclusion of deliberations.

In standard judicial terminology, to render a verdict is to formally pronounce or hand down a decision.

3

Evaluate the humanitarian scenario and direct object 'emergency medical aid' in the third sentence.

Medical units deliver, give, or administer support to individuals.

In formal and military registers, to 'render aid' or 'render assistance' means to furnish or provide service.

4

Assess the industrial/craft processing clues 'suet', 'hides', and 'high heat' in the fourth sentence.

Suet is hard animal fat that requires thermal extraction and purification.

In manufacturing, chemistry, and culinary domains, 'rendering' is the exact technical term for melting and purifying fat.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $1,570\text{ cubic feet}$

Cevap

The total volume of the tank is

1,570\text{ cubic feet}

.

The correct answer is found by first halving the given diameter (20 feet) to get a radius of 10 feet. The radius is then squared (100) and multiplied by the height (5) and pi (3.14) according to the volume formula

V = \pi r^2 h

. The calculation

3.14 \times 100 \times 5

equals

1,570\text{ cubic feet}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the radius of the cylindrical tank.

r = \frac{d}{2} = \frac{20}{2} = 10\text{ feet}

The volume formula for a cylinder requires the radius, not the diameter.

2

Set up the volume formula for a cylinder.

V = \pi r^2 h

This is the standard geometric formula to find the volume of any cylinder.

3

Substitute the known values into the formula and solve.

V = 3.14 \times (10)^2 \times 5 = 3.14 \times 100 \times 5 = 314 \times 5 = 1,570\text{ cubic feet}

Squaring 10 gives 100, which moves the decimal point in 3.14 two places to the right, making the final multiplication straightforward.

The military context regarding the garrison matches 'undergo or suffer a detrimental condition'. The business context regarding the startup matches 'supply with necessities for prolonged operation'.

Each sentence utilizes distinct contextual markers (legal, physical, detrimental, and operational) that isolate a specific definition of the polysemous word. Careful attention to the outcomes described in the sentences—such as the garrison taking damage versus the alloy holding up against pressure—reveals the precise semantic function being used.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze the legal context in the first sentence.

Identified clues: 'appellate court', 'procedural precedents', 'tribunal'.

These terms restrict the meaning of 'sustain' to the domain of jurisprudence, meaning to uphold a ruling.

2

Analyze the engineering context in the second sentence.

Identified clues: 'titanium alloy', 'atmospheric pressures'.

These terms refer to structural integrity, pointing to the definition of bearing a physical load without yielding.

3

Analyze the military context in the third sentence.

Identified clues: 'skirmish', 'severe structural compromises'.

Because the structure was compromised, 'sustain' here means to take or undergo damage, not to withstand it.

4

Analyze the financial context in the fourth sentence.

Identified clues: 'capital injection', 'expansion strategy'.

Financial capital is used to keep operations running, matching the definition of supplying backing for continuous operation.
