Engineering Design Process

What is the first step in the engineering design process?

• Create a prototype

• Identify the problem or need

• Conduct research

• Brainstorm possible solutions

What is the purpose of problem identification in the engineering design process?

• To communicate the problem to stakeholders.

• To evaluate the success of the engineering design process.

• To brainstorm possible solutions to the problem.

• To clearly define and understand the problem that needs to be solved.

What is brainstorming in the context of the engineering design process?

• A method of analyzing data to identify patterns and trends.

• A creative problem-solving technique involving generating a large number of ideas and solutions through open and collaborative discussion.

• A technique for testing and refining prototypes.

• A process of evaluating and selecting the best idea or solution.

Why is brainstorming an important step in the engineering design process?

• Brainstorming allows for the generation of ideas and solutions, encourages creativity and collaboration, and helps identify potential problems.

• Brainstorming only leads to confusion and chaos.

• Brainstorming is a waste of time and resources.

• Brainstorming helps in narrowing down ideas and solutions.

What is prototyping in the engineering design process?

• The creation of a preliminary model or sample of a product or system to test and evaluate its design.

• The implementation of the final design into production

• The analysis of data collected during testing

• The process of finalizing the design of a product or system

Why is prototyping important in the engineering design process?

• To waste time and resources

• To skip the evaluation process

• To increase production costs

• To test and evaluate designs before final production.

Why is it important to test and evaluate the prototype in the engineering design process?

• To save time and money in the production process.

• To identify and fix flaws or issues before final production.

• To impress potential investors with a working prototype.

• To gather feedback from users and make improvements.

What is the purpose of the engineering design process?

• To randomly guess solutions without any structure.

• To complicate the problem-solving process.

• To discourage creativity and innovation.

• To systematically solve problems and create innovative solutions.
