A test that requires placing a test sample in a tank of water is called:

• Submersion testing

• Spray testing

• Immersion testing

• None of the above

Magnetic particle patterns help define:

• Size of welds and part dimensions

• Types of discontinuities or defects

• Metal hardness

• Welding processes used

Which of the following is a true statement about visual testing:

• Least popular nondestructive testing method

• Most popular and widely used nondestructive testing method

• Limited due to the expense involved

• None of the above

What does visual inspection consist of?

• Examining welds

• Examining overall weldments

• Comparing welds and weldments

• All of the above

An arrow on a reference line can:

• Point up or down

• Be placed on either end

• Point to either side

• All of the above

Which initials don't relate to nondestructive test-

ing?

• Dwelling time

• Microscope action

• Gravity action
