The 3x3 Feedback Model
200
Risk is the product of these two criteria, exactly what is quantified in a risk matrix.
What are severity and likelihood?
200
We are producing SLCAs for this project as opposed to LCAs primarily due to this constraint.
What is time?
200
This type of engineering drawing can be analogous to folding a box into your design. Despite it's name, more sides can be added if necessary for clarity!
What is third angle projection?
200
The following drawing is not isometric because it fails this condition?
What is all horizontal axes at 30 degrees?
200
A dollar sign indicates this type of reference.
What is absolute?
200
For both the sender and recipient, being clear involves not only speech, but also this important aspect of communication.
What is body language?
400
While external risks are unfortunately uncontrolled, these two main types of risks that a team are in a team's control.
What are strategic and preventable?
400
This step, which comes between inventory analysis and interpretation, is missing from the following list of LCA steps.
1. Goals and definitions
2. Inventory analysis
3. Interpretation
What is impact assessment?
400
This engineering drawing suffers from this classic blunder, which can actually make a drawing more confusing! 
What is over-dimensioning?
400
A system which is socially equitable or built with locally available resources is more likely to be this.
What is resilient?
400
In the model of the tank that is upcoming in Module 7, the formula to get the change in volume in the tank over one step is this?
What is the original level + (flow rate in minus flow rate out) * the time step?
400
A team member wants to give constructive feedback to their teammate, but realizes that the receiver just bombed the Physics 158 midterm and is currently reevaluating his self-worth. By delaying the feedback until later, the sender is emphasizing this C from the 3x3 model.
What is considerate?
600
This blue highlighted risk is in the wrong position, and should instead be placed in strategic project management.
What is the redesigned rotor?
600
Though SLCA's are qualitative, much easier, and cheaper than traditional LCA's, it has been suggested that SLCA's still capture this percentage of the issues that a full LCA would identify.
What is 80%?
600
All dashed lines show the hidden features of a drawing, but this special type of dashed line (l- ---- - ---- -) signifies one thing in particular.
What is the center of a hole?
600
The relationship between volume of material removed in a mine and depth scales according to this relationship.
What is proportional to the cube of depth?
600
For the following equation modelling water flowing out of a bucket, V is in liters, t in minutes, and R in ml/s. This value of k is the one that balances the units in the equation.
V = k * R * t
What is 0.06 L * s / ml * min?
600
The sandwich feedback technique is supposedly an example of this part of the 3x3 feedback model, even if I find it very annoying.
What is a considerate message?
800
Successfully mitigating a risk brings us back to this initial stage of the risk management flowchart.
What is identify risks?
800
In the process of creating an LCA for an electric vs IC vehicle, an appropriate functional unit would be this.
What is xxxx distance travelled.
800
Extension lines may cross in the dimensions of a drawing, but these lines may not.
What are dimension lines?
800
When choosing a range for a risk matrix, any choice is theoretically possible, so long as this fatal mistake is not made.
What is including 0?
800
Known as Torricelli's Law, the relationship between the height of water in a tank and the flow rate out of the tank is given by this expression.
What is v = sqrt(2gh)?
800
Across the 3x3 feedback model, all of the 7 C's are used except for these two. Hint: Donald Trump's State of the Union Address yesterday could probably have benefited from these two the most!
What are correct and concise?
1000
It can be confusing to differentiate between project management and operational risks - it helps to remember that project management risks only correspond to these two elements of a project.
What are time and budget?
1000
This value is defined sum of the values in an SLCA, and can inform us about the environmental impact of an option.
What is an environmentally responsible product rating (RERP)?
1000
The hole in this drawing is over-dimensioned because of this.
What is 20 diameter and R20 (same measurement)?
1000
A team member who is determined to get their way on an issue will employ this conflict management style.
What is competing?
1000
The if statement
=if($B$2 > 4, no, if($B$2 < 1, no, yes))
returns this if the value in cell B1 is 4
What is yes?
1000
While the message should of course be considerate of the recipient, it should also emphasize these two "sister C's" that ensure the message is effective.
What are complete and concrete?
1200
A team which neglected to ensure their claw works with the provided pulley is guilty of this risk type.
What is operational?
1200
The RERP for this SCLA.
What is 28?
1200
Engineers in North America and Australia use third-angle projection, while other countries use first-angle projection. No matter, they are both forms of this technique.
What is orthographic projection?
1200
The given list of the stages of a mining project is missing this important late stage.
1) Exploration 2) Approval 3) Construction 4) Operation 5) Closure
What is remediation?
1200
For the equation shown in cell F13, this would be the resulting change if the equation were changed to =($D13 - $E13)
What is no change?
1200
Both the sender and the receiver of feedback should be clear and courteous, but while the sender should ensure their message is considerate, the receiver should instead prioritize this C, which includes acknowledging that the feedback was heard.
What is complete?
