13
assess the following statements. if the statement is true mark (✓) if it is false mark (x).
shock absorbers with a level adjustment are typically found...
☒☑ on light trucks that haul varied payloads.
☒☑ on the front of a vehicle only.
☒☑ on the rear of a vehicle only.
☒☑ on one side of the vehicle only.
ok

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each statement about shock absorbers with level adjustment:

1. "On light trucks that haul varied payloads."

Light trucks with varied payloads need level adjustment to maintain vehicle height (and handling) under different loads. This is true. So mark $\boldsymbol{\checkmark}$.

2. "On the front of a vehicle only."

Level - adjusting shock absorbers are not restricted to the front. Rear suspension (especially in trucks/vehicles with payload concerns) can also have them. This is false. So mark $\boldsymbol{\times}$.

3. "On the rear of a vehicle only."

They are not limited to the rear. Front suspension in some cases (or across both axles in load - carrying vehicles) can have them. This is false. So mark $\boldsymbol{\times}$.

4. "On one side of the vehicle only."

For proper vehicle leveling, both sides (left and right) of an axle need consistent adjustment. Having them on one side only would cause unevenness. This is false. So mark $\boldsymbol{\times}$.

Final Answers (Marking):

• On light trucks that haul varied payloads: $\checkmark$
• On the front of a vehicle only: $\times$
• On the rear of a vehicle only: $\times$
• On one side of the vehicle only: $\times$
