What is the primary purpose of a block diagram?

• To present a system as a top-down overview so less technical knowledge is needed to understand it

• To provide detailed wiring routes and conductor sizes for installation

• To show precise physical dimensions and tolerances of components

• To specify material properties for each part

What is the primary purpose of a hydraulic schematic?

• To show how the components in a fluid power circuit are connected so that the function of the circuit can be understood

• To give manufacturing tolerances for hydraulic components

• To provide a 3D physical layout of the hydraulic system

• To list material specifications for hoses and fittings

Explain two differences between first angle and third angle orthographic projection drawings in terms of how the object being drawn is shown. Select all that apply.

• First angle uses the first quadrant, while third angle uses the third quadrant.

• In first angle, the object is between the observer and the plane of projection; in third angle, the projection plane is between the observer and the object.

• In first angle, the front view is at the top of the horizontal axis; in third angle, the front view is at the bottom of the horizontal axis.

• Both methods place the object in the second quadrant.

Emily is leading a team at an engineering firm that is considering adopting ISO standards. Which of the following are purposes of ISO standards in engineering? Select all that apply.

• Provide an international set of norms for operations.

• Improve safety.

• Improve production quality.

• Help ensure compliance with legislation.

• Increase customer confidence.

Explain two advantages of a business using Pareto analysis as an approach to quality improvement.

• Identifies the problems or defects with the biggest impact, supporting better decision making

• Identifies root causes so solutions can provide the most benefit

• Is straightforward to understand because findings are displayed in a clear chart or graphical format

• Shows that 80% of problems come from 20% of causes, helping causes to be identified and addressed

• Removes the need for any further analysis or action
