Before one can begin the other steps in the engineering process, first they must do this.
What is define the problem?
Anything that occupies space and has mass.
What is matter?
The two basic categories of forces.
What are contact and field?
The ability to do work.
What is energy?
The smallest unit of matter
What are atoms?
Coming up with multiple ideas results in a better project, as during this step of the engineering process.
What is brainstorm or imagine?
When less dense fluids rise, and more dense fluids sink.
What is convection?
Pulling on an object that provides resistance qualifies as this type of force.
What is tension?
The energy of an object which could move, but currently isn't.
What is potential energy?
Groups of atoms compose this larger unit.
What are molecules?
Items that don't let energy pass through them.
What are insulators?
Concrete is an example of this scientific term for a combination of matter.
What is mixture?
Objects being pushed together are subject to this type of force.
What is compression?
A force that acts on an object is defined in this way.
What is work?
Layers on the bottom are laid down first, so anything in them is the same age and older than the upper layers is the essence of this principle.
What is the principle of superposition?
When particles transfer heat by bumping into each other.
What is conduction?
All elements fall under this category.
What is pure substance?
Gravity does this for objects.
What is gives them weight?
The first law of thermodynamics.
What is that energy cannot be created or destroyed?
Burning wood is an example of this change.
What is a chemical change?
The preliminary model that is created during engineering is called this.
What is the prototype?
In a solid particles that are close together indicate this material typically has this property.
What is a conductor?
The measure of kinetic energy of an object.
What is a Temperature?
The measurement of the flow of energy from warmer places to cooler ones
What is heat?
Spaces where earth plates meet.
What plate boundaries?
