Engineering Worksheet: Part 1 Test

Engineering lesson 8: Part 1 test: what engineers do · Set 257 · 40 questions

Engineer's tip (Find the topic, use the idea): Find the topic: invention, branch, design step, limit or goal, testing, teamwork or tools. Use that lesson’s rule — the design process order is ask, imagine, plan, create, test, improve. For number questions, write the calculation before you answer.

24. 24.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) repeat each test (b) record every result (c) change lots at once (d) measure the same way
25. 25.🧪 The first prototype held 200 g. After the team improved it, the new prototype held 360 g. How many more grams did it hold?
26. 26.🔢 To follow the engineering design process, what comes right after “Create”? (a) Test (b) Imagine (c) Plan (d) Ask
