What is the primary goal of the Engineering Design Process?

• To create a perfect product

• To solve a specific problem

• To reduce production costs

• To ensure mass production

Which of the following best describes the 'Define the Problem' step?

• Identifying the best solution

• Building a prototype

• Understanding the problem and establishing criteria and constraints

• Evaluating the effectiveness of a solution

Which tool is typically used to organize and prioritize possible solutions?

• Gantt chart

• Decision matrix

• Flowchart

• Engineering notebook

What is the purpose of a Design Brief?

• To outline the final product

• To create technical drawings

• To communicate the problem, criteria, and constraints

• To brainstorm solutions

Which step involves gathering information and conducting research on existing solutions?

• Define the problem

• Generate concepts

• Develop a solution

• Test and evaluate

What is the purpose of brainstorming?

• To refine a solution

• To come up with as many ideas as possible without judgment

• To test a solution

• To prioritize solutions based on constraints

What is a constraint in the Engineering Design Process?

• A possible solution

• A limitation or restriction

• A suggestion for improvement

• A concept that must be evaluated

What happens after generating multiple concepts in the design process?

• Concepts are tested

• Concepts are selected and refined

• A prototype is built

• A solution is presented

Which of the following is NOT a common phase in the Engineering Design Process?

• Define the problem

• Present the solution

• Generate feedback

• Develop a solution

During which step would engineers typically create detailed technical drawings?

• Generate concepts

• Develop a solution

• Define the problem

• Construct a prototype
