Question: 1 / 1030

Aircraft instrument panels are generally shock mounted to absorb

electrical surges

low frequency, high amplitude shocks

Aircraft instrument panels are shock mounted to absorb low frequency, high amplitude shocks. These shock mounts help to protect the instruments from the vibrations and impacts that can occur during the operation of the aircraft. High frequency, low amplitude shocks are more easily dampened by other means and are less likely to damage the instruments. Electrical surges are typically addressed through the aircraft's electrical system and do not require shock mounting. Physical impacts are only one part of the potential shocks that an aircraft instrument panel may experience, making option B the correct choice for this question.
