What is the first step in the Engineering Design Process?

• Do Background Research

• Define the Problem

• Test Solution

• Specify Requirements

Which question helps define a problem in the Engineering Design Process?

• How much will it cost?

• What is the problem?

• When will it be finished?

• Where will it be used?

Which of the following is a common way to protect objects from breaking?

• Using sharp edges

• Making them very heavy

• Using packaging materials

• Exposing them to extreme temperatures

What is a requirement for the egg-drop lander mentioned in the video?

• It must be made of metal.

• It must weigh more than 100 grams.

• It must protect the eggstronaut from breaking.

• It must be able to fly.

What is the first step when choosing a solution from multiple brainstormed ideas?

• Combine all solutions into one.

• Eliminate ideas that do not fit the design criteria.

• Immediately build the most complex solution.

• Ask a friend to choose for you.

What are some effective ways to evaluate different design solutions?

• Only consider the cost of building.

• Make a pros and cons list, compare criteria, and consider time and cost.

• Choose the solution that looks the most interesting.

• Only focus on how quickly it can be built.

What does it mean to make a prototype?

• To draw a detailed picture of the final product.

• To make a working model of the solution.

• To write a detailed report about the idea.

• To buy all the materials needed for the final product.

What should you do if your prototype does not meet all the design requirements?

• Give up on the project.

• Make changes to the design and test it again.

• Pretend it works and move on.

• Start a completely new project from scratch.
