The engineering design process follows the same steps as the scientific discovery process, or scientific
method? True? - No, there are major differences
Descriptive geometry is described in the book and video lecture in relation to: - Geometry as a means of
computation and analysis
An engineering drawing can be considered a legally binding document. True? - YES
The term IPS in SolidWorks refers to - measurement units
To create an extrusion i must first draw a sketch on a surface. True? - Yes but the surface must be flat
To create a revolved feature, the profile and the axis of revolution must be coplanar. True? - Yes
To create a solid revolution i must - Select a plain line from the sketch to use as an axis
Make an axis in the sketch using a construction line
Use reference geometry to make an axis
How do you define datum axes - -between two points or vertices
-along a linear edge
-at the intersection of two planar surfaces
-at the intersection of a cylinder and a plane through its axis
-along the centerline of a cylinder or cylindrical surface
defining datum points - -at a vertex
-on a planar surface at specified perpendicular distances from two edges
, -at the intersection of a line or an axis and a surface that does not contain the line
defining datum planes - -through three noncolinear points
-through two intersecting lines
-through a line and a noncolinear point
-offset from an existing flat surface at a specified distance
-through an edge or axis pm flat surface at an angle from that surface
-tangent to a surface at a point on that surface
-perpendicular to a flat surface and through a line parallel to that surface
-perpendicular to a flat or cylindrical surface through a line on that surface
-tangent to a cylindrical surface at a line on that surface
I have a distance in my sketch preceded by a "sigma" symbol. This means - it is a dimension driven by a
parametric formula
In the default view, the Y axis in solidworks points in this direction - Up
The front plan in solidworks is defined by these axes - xy
The following feature facilitates removal from mold - Draft
I have to ass a clearance hole to my part for fastening. WHich is better from a design intent perpective? -
Hole made with a hole wizard
a blend (loft) requires at least these many profile sketches - two
direct effects of fastening systems? - -products durability
-reliability
-size
