SOLIDWORKS questions with correct
answers
SOLIDWORKS CAD software - correct answer ✔✔mechanical design automation application that
lets designers quickly sketch out ideas, experiment with features and dimensions, and produce
models and detailed drawings
3D model - correct answer ✔✔-it is created as you design a part, from the initial sketch to the
final result
-from this model, you can create 2D drawings or mate components consisting of parts or
subassemblies to create 3D assemblies
origin - correct answer ✔✔appears as two blue arrows and represents the (0,0,0) coordinate of
the model.
active, red - correct answer ✔✔when sketch is _______, a sketch origin appears in _______ and
represents the (0,0,0) coordinate of the sketch
axis - correct answer ✔✔straight line used to create model geometry, features, or patterns
face - correct answer ✔✔selectable area planar or nonplanar) of a model or surface
edge - correct answer ✔✔location where two or more faces intersect and are joined together
vertex - correct answer ✔✔Point at which two or more lines or edges intersect
centerline - correct answer ✔✔through the origin and is used to create the resolve
, driving dimensions - correct answer ✔✔change the size of the model when you change their
values
extruded boss - correct answer ✔✔used to make your 2D sketch into a 3D model
extrude cut - correct answer ✔✔cuts or make a hole on your 3D model
shell - correct answer ✔✔removes material from a solid body to create a thin-walled feature
fillet - correct answer ✔✔creates a rounded internal or external face along one or more edges
in solid
mirror - correct answer ✔✔mirrors features, faces, and bodies about a face or plane
insert components - correct answer ✔✔adds an existing part or subassembly to the assembly
mate - correct answer ✔✔positions two components relative to one another
coincident, concentric, distance mates - correct answer ✔✔types of mates
bottom-up design - correct answer ✔✔in this method, you create parts, insert them into an
assembly, and mate them as required by your design
SOLIDWORKS Motion - correct answer ✔✔uses complete kinematic modeling to compute
component motion
