The concept of entropy is a measure of - ANS✔✔ Unavailable energy or imperfection
Reliability of a system is also referred to as the: - ANS✔✔ Design-in level of perfection
The deterioration or wear of an aircraft part represents a(n)________in the total entropy of the
system. - ANS✔✔ Increase
Who determines which systems are not required to fly safely? - ANS✔✔ Pilot
The design engineer's role is to - ANS✔✔ Design a system with low entropy
The _________ check is a failure-finding task established under the Maintenance Steering
Group (MSG)-3 designed to determine if an items is fulfilling its purpose - ANS✔✔ Operational
The Condition Monitoring (CM) process monitors failure rates, removals etc. of components
that - ANS✔✔ Have no noticeable wear out period
Which of the following is NOT a source of structural deterioration? - ANS✔✔ Stress Damage
T/F: Hard Time (HT), On-Condition (OC) and Condition Monitoring (CM) are failure preventive
processes - ANS✔✔ False
