Engineering and Technology Unit 3
Vocabulary and Information questions and
answers
Ductility - ANSWERS>>>>>the amount of pressure an object can withstand
before it fractures. (Think, duct-ility, duct tape hold things together)
Conductivity - ANSWERS>>>>>the capacity to transmit heat, sound or
electricity.
Engineering and Design Process - ANSWERS>>>>>A series of steps engineers
follow to develop a solution to a problem.
Astrodynamics - ANSWERS>>>>>is the study of mechanics used in spaced
Mechanical Properties - ANSWERS>>>>>Describes how a material will react to
physical forces.
Thermal Properties - ANSWERS>>>>>Measured by its ability to transfer heat
Biotechnology - ANSWERS>>>>>The use of living systems and organisms to
develop or make products.
Environmental Engineering - ANSWERS>>>>>A branch of engineering that
focuses on how to apply scientific principles.
Aerospace Engineering - ANSWERS>>>>>Branch of engineering that deals with
the design, development, and manufacturing of transportation through air.
Fluid mechanics - ANSWERS>>>>>the study of how fluid flows around obstacles,
specifically how air moves over or through objects
, Astrodynamics - ANSWERS>>>>>the study of mechanics used in space;
revolves around practical problems around space crafts, mainly their motion.
Mathematics - ANSWERS>>>>>the study of calculus, differential equations, and
linear algebra.
Electro technology - ANSWERS>>>>>the study of electronics within engineering.
Propulsion - ANSWERS>>>>>the energy to move a vehicle through air
Aircraft structures - ANSWERS>>>>>involves the design created to help the
physical features withstand the forces encountered during flight.
Space Colonization - ANSWERS>>>>>the process of relocating inhabitants on
earth to another less sustainable planet by providing the necessary equipment
to survive.
Step 1 of the engineering design process - ANSWERS>>>>>Define the problem
Define the Problem - ANSWERS>>>>>Evaluating your requirements with the
following questions; "What is the problem or need?", "Who has this problem or
need?", and "Why is it important to solve?"
Step 2 of the engineering design process - ANSWERS>>>>>Do background
research
Do background research - ANSWERS>>>>>Discover existing solutions to similar
problems as to avoid previous mistakes and to enhance your knowledge on the
topic.
Step 3 of the engineering design process - ANSWERS>>>>>Specify
requirements
