Introduction To Engineering - 7

Subject : engineering
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.

28. An inclined plane which is wrapped around a cylinder






29. The weight or resistance on a lever






30. The study of how human beings best interact with technology






31. If you generate alternative solutions and begin to build your best solution - but you have problems building your design - what should you do?






32. A force that opposes motion






33. The energy of motion
