An engineer is:
(choose the BEST possible answer)

• Someone who helps others

• Someone who solves problems

• Someone who comes up with ideas

• Someone who makes a lot of money

An engineer uses what type of knowledge:
(choose ALL that apply)

• Mathematical

• Technical

• Scientific

• Theoretical

The engineering design process is:

• A random system of trail and error efforts to try and solve a problem

• A specific set of steps that begins with a problem and ends with a solution

• A specific set of steps that may or may not result in solving a problem

• The exact same thing as the Scientific Model

The difference in specification and constraints is this:

• Specifications are things the design MUST do, constraints are things that include limitations you are working against.

• Specifications are those things you specifically have to work around.

• Constraints are the items that must be accomplished.

• They have nothing to do with each other.

What is a trade-off?

• Something you swap for an even trade. There's no real advantage or disadvantage.

• Something you give up for no real benefit. This isn't the best option, and probably isn't worth settling for.

• Something you "settle for" that isn't ideal, but still accomplishes the outcome you are looking for.

• These are business deals people make where you give up something to get something.
