What is a criterion in the context of engineering design?

Back

A standard or requirement that a design solution must meet to be considered successful.

Front

What is a constraint in engineering design?

Back

A limitation or restriction on the design process, such as budget, materials, or time.

Front

What is the first step in the Engineering Design Process?

Back

Defining the problem.

Front

What is brainstorming in the context of engineering design?

Back

A creative process where engineers generate a wide range of ideas and solutions.

Front

What is a prototype?

Back

A working model of a design that is used to test and evaluate the solution.

Front

Why is testing important in the Engineering Design Process?

Back

To determine if the design meets the criteria and constraints and to identify any necessary improvements.
