What does a chemical engineer do?
They turn raw materials into more usable materials or products.
100
What do civil and environmental engineers do?
They design, construct, supervise, operate, and maintain large construction projects.
100
What do electric engineers do?
They design, develop, test, and supervise the manufacturing of electrical equipment.
100
When doing an egg drop, what is the collision between?
The egg and the floor
200
What is a filtration?
To pass (a liquid, gas, light, or sound) through a device to remove unwanted material.
200
What is the difference between a chemical engineer and a chemist?
Chemists are more likely to develop materials and processes, while chemical engineers are more likely to take these materials/processes and make them more efficient and USABLE.
200
What kind of projects would civil and environmental engineers be a part of?
The building of roads, buildings, tunnels, dams, bridges, and systems for water supply and sewage treatment.
200
Opposites ________ and likes ________ .
Attract, repel
200
What does a mechanical engineer do?
They design, develop, build, and test mechanical and thermal devices.
300
Why is a filtration system important?
--provides clean drinking water --used to increase air quality --removes hazardous material from water
300
What gas is created when water is mixed with Alka-Seltzer?
Carbon dioxide
300
What are "constraints?"
They are project requirements and/or limitations that engineers must take into consideration to come up with successful design solutions.
300
What kind of field is an invisible force that is able to have seemingly magical influence on certain metals?
Magnetic field
300
What is a collision?
An instance of one moving object or person striking violently against another.
400
What kind of waste do oysters remove from the environment?
They remove plankton, organic particles, nitrogen waste, etc.
400
Name two different fields you would find chemical engineers working in.
Any of the following, plus any other relevant fields: Energy, Environmental, Biomedical, Electronics, Food Production and Processing, Personal Care Products, Coatings, Materials, Pharmaceuticals, etc.
400
What shape is most important to a civil engineer when building bridges or any other stable structure?
A triangle, since the triangle does not easily deform and is able to balance the stretching and compressive forces inside the structure.
400
Name places an engineer uses magnets.
Compasses, fans, earbuds, speakers, roller coasters, microwaves, etc.
400
The more time in a collision, the more the _______ is spread out.
Force
500
Up to how many gallons of water does an oyster filter per day?
50 gallons
500
What system is implemented to make a rocket work?
System of thrust - the more gas that is made, the more pressure builds up until the cap it blasted down and the rocket is blasted up.
500
What constraints should an engineer take into account when building a roller coaster?
Some limitations include: available or preferred building materials, a construction budget and timeframe, safety measures for users, ongoing maintenance requirements and/or anticipated weather conditions.
500
How do magnetic trains work?
They use electro-magnets to levitate the train and magnets to repel it along the track.
