ENGINEERING BTEC UPDATED EXAM
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
●● Automotive engineering
Answer: Design, manufacture and operations of motorcycles,
automobiles, buses and trucks and their respective engineering
subsystems.
●● Communications engineering
Answer: Brings together electrical engineering with computer science to
enhance telecommunications systems. Overlaps with broadcast
engineering.
●● Electrical engineering
Answer: A field of engineering that generally deals with the study and
application of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism.
●● Mechanical engineering
Answer: A discipline of engineering that applies the principles of
Physics and materials for analysis, design, manufacturing and
maintenance of mechanical systems.
●● Biomedical engineering
,Answer: The application of engineering principles and design concepts
to medicine and biology for health care purposes. This field seeks to
close the gap between engineering and medicine.
●● Chemical engineering
Answer: Branch of engineering that applies physical sciences and
chemistry and physics and life sciences (biology) together with maths to
convert raw materials or chemicals into more useful or valuable forms.
●● MIG Welding
Answer: Uses electricity to generate heat required to weld materials.
Suitable for large scale production. Varying thickness of materials can be
joined. Reduced cost due to the production of neat and clean metal
deposits on the workpiece means there is no need for extra cleaning.
●● Name some PPE
Answer: Some pretty cute options here
●● Advantages and Disadvantages of Drilling Machines
Answer: Advantage: Accurate precision drilling
Drill a variety of diameters
Disadvantage: Must be operated by a skilled worker
Not portable (??????????????????)
, ●● Advantages and Disadvantages of a MIling Machine
Answer: Advantage: The table of the machine can be moved to an
accuracy of 0.02mm
Special attachments can be mounted on the machine to perform
operations that are performed in other machine tools
Disadvantage: Too many fking parts to label
The cost of the milling machine is high
Uses a lot of electricity
●● What the hell does a Turning Machine do??
Answer: Turning is a form of machining, a material removal process,
which is used to create rotational parts by cutting away unwanted
material.
●● Describe the process of Sand Casting plz m8
Answer:
●● Two freaking H&S issues with sand casting
Answer: Be cautious and pay attention to your surroundings.
Wear PPE
●● 2 advantages and disadvantages of sand casting :D
Answer: Advantage: Low cost
