Concepts of Engineering Study Guide

1.       What is a scale drawing? - drawing that shows a real object with accurate sizes reduced or enlarged by a certain amount (called the scale). 

2.       Give an example of a formula for a scale drawing? -  1' to 1"

3.1.       Make a word problem like the one in the example. 
 the  scale drawing of my room is top side is 3" long 
 what is the measurment if on the  if the scale of my room is 15
3/5

Environmental Engineer Help refineries reduce their toxic gas emissions, which contribute to acid rain and global warming.Design the structure and irrigation for rooftop gardens, helping reduce building heating and cooling costs.
Fuel Cell Engineer Develop a new coating that will enable a fuel cell to operate using either fossil fuels or hydrogen-based fuels.Design a network of hydrogen fueling stations so that users can fill up with hydrogen just like gasolineMake a fuel cell with an efficiency high enough to power a city bus all day long without refueling.


Industrial Engineer Reconfigure airport check-in services to shorten lines and make passengers happier.Design a more-efficient car assembly line to save on manufacturing costs.Determine the fastest way to transport perishable goods cross-country, even during bad weather.


Materials Scientist and EngineerDevelop a way to recycle non-metallic components of old computers to create park benches, fences, and sewer grates.Create a titanium alloy joint that can be used as a permanent hip bone replacement.
Design a safety harness for an upside-down amusement park ride.Model the bending and twisting displayed by solar panels on a space telescope.Design surgical robots that improve precision and reduce incision size, blood loss, pain, and healing time.

Microsystems EngineerHelp a child with cerebral palsy walk by creating an internal medication pump for anti-muscle-spasm drugs.Develop a set of microphones so small they can easily be implanted in almost any device for secret audio surveillance.Create sensors that can detect when a spot is empty or full and relay that information to parking attendants

Nanosystems EngineerDevelop a new material to make a lightweight tennis racket that can withstand the force of a powerful serve.

Radio Frequency EngineerRecommend the best location for a new antenna to be constructed in order to triple the number of wireless devices that can be supported.Reunite lost pets and their owners by creating microchips to be surgically implanted and store owner contact information.
Robotics EngineerInvent the next generation of robotic toys, like this table-tennis-playing humanoid.Build cool animatronic equipment and special effects for amusement parks and the entertainment industry.Increase manufacturing capacity by creating specialized robots for each automatable task.

Solar Energy Systems EngineerHelp a dairy farmer become energy independent by designing a solar photovoltaic system that will fit on a barn roof.Design a solar hot-water heater for a home so that a family can enjoy long, hot showers without increasing their energy bill.
Transportation EngineerReview plans of a proposed downtown development to determine the effect on the traffic system.
Redesign the runways of an airport in order to accommodate the new mega jumbo jets.
Water or Wastewater EngineerDesign an engineering solution that will protect a town from the devastating effects of flooding.Oversee daily testing on a city's water supply to ensure that it is safe for the population to drink.

Wind Energy EngineerBe part of a team that installs a wind energy farm in the oceanAnalyze annual wind speed and direction data to determine the best location for a wind farm.Test a new wind-turbine blade design in an air tunnel.

Based off the information in the chart, how is an engineer different from a technician?
e
e          engineer sooe different  range of problem while technican are speclized people soveing a certain  type of problem.


e1.       What is the difference between an isometric, orthographic drawing? 
 isometric  having equal dimensions and orthographic  is three-dimensional object in two dimensions.

1.       What is a perspective drawing?  drawing has a single vanishing point
1.       How is the product development life cycle part of your shark tank project?    Is a part becuase you have degsin , product , test and market .
1.       Define deployment: to sell and realase .

Define maintenancethe process of maintaining or preserving someone or something, or the state of being maintained.


1.       Define design:a plan or drawing produced to show the look and function or workings of a building, garment, or other object before it is built or made.
 1.       Define prototyping:   Workable version of a product 


1.       What is the difference between invention and innovation?  Inventation is something new while innvoation is making something better  

1.       Name 3 key team work skills are critical to you doing well on your Shark Tank Design Project. 
  Desgining , planning and bussiness plan 

Based off of the information the right, what is the formula for calculating a live load?  (Hint: This was in the Engineering  area x pressure .
1.       How does air affect breaks?  Air in the system causes a breakdown in this communication. Input forces created by operating the brake lever can no longer be transmitted effectively as these forces are wasted as the air inside the system is compressed.
1.       What is elasticity?the ability of an object or material to resume its normal shape after being stretched or compressed; stretchiness.

1.       What is ductility?is a solid material's ability to deform under tensile stress
1.       What are mechanical properties? a property that involves a relationship between stress and strain or a reaction to an applied force.
1.       What is the most common measure of strength?
 dynamometer are the most common methods to measure strength.
