Exclamation Can anybody answer these questions?

Could anybody who knows the definitive answer to the following questions please post the correct answer? I have conflicting answers when going through my feedback and would really appreciate to know which one is correct! The books my old college used to use are not that helpful.


1. A yaw damper will indicate to the pilot

a. yaw damper movement of the rudder position

or

b. rudder position

I believe answer a. to be correct, but another example of this question words answer a. slightly differently, it says

Yaw damper action on the rudder.

What would be the right answer?


2. Fuel quantity in aircraft tanks is measured by capacitor contents gauges. These sensors measure.

a. The condensor charge
b. Height of the fuel

Which one is more correct? Again in another version of the same question the answer Capacitance replaces Condensor charge. What is the more correct answer?


3. An auto-pilot syncronisation system

a. can itself, when it fails, prevent the autopilot from being
engaged

b. Is inhibited when the autopilot is engaged.


Cheers guys
