Civil Engineering
What is Newton's Second Law?
Hint: it is an equation
F=m*a
where F is Force (N)
m is mass (kg)
a is acceleration (m/s2)
This machine is used in hospitals to take images of bones.
X-Ray
These were the people to make the first working airplane.
The Wright Brothers
This fundamental equation, V = IR, describes the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance.
Ohm's Law
This term refers to an error in a program that prevents it from running correctly.
A bug
What facet of civil engineering deals with planning roads and intersections?
Transportation Engineering
This is an artificial replacement of a body part, such as an arm or a leg.
Prosthetic
This is the equation for friction.
F=μ N
where F is Friction Force (N)
μ is coefficient of friction (static or kinetic)
N is Normal Force
This type of circuit has only one path for current to flow through all components.
A series circuit
This is the term for a step-by-step set of instructions used in programming.
An algorithm
The strength of a structure against forces like wind and earthquakes is tested using this type of analysis.
Structural Analysis
This type of tissue connects muscles to bones and helps with movement.
A tendon
This force opposes motion and slows down an aircraft.
Air Resistance / Drag
The fundamental unit of digital data, represented as a 0 or 1.
A bit.
What is the first thing that is typically written when you type a line of a code in a new program?
"Hello World"
This ancient Roman structure used to transport water is an early example of civil engineering!
The Aqueducts
This system in the human body is responsible for transporting oxygen, nutrients, and hormones through the blood.
Circulatory System
This type of energy is stored in objects due to their position, such as a compressed spring or raised weight.
Potential Energy
This electrical component stores charge and is often used in power supply circuits.
A capacitor
This data structure follows the Last In, First Out (LIFO) principle.
The St. Louis Arch is composed of which type of material?
Stainless Steel
Biomedical engineers design this life-saving device that helps the heart maintain a regular rhythm.
A pacemaker
In mechanical engineering, this term describes the study of objects in motion.
Dynamics
The first practical computer, built in 1946, was called this.
the ENIAC
This search algorithm, used for sorted lists, repeatedly divides the list in half to find a target value.
Binary search
