Mechanical Engineering
Which of the following areas of science is a foundation of Mechanical Engineering?
- (correct Answer) - Physics
Which word best describes mechanical engineering? - (correct Answer) -
Which of the following design considerations would NOT be a primary focus for
Mechanical Engineers? - (correct Answer) - Current and resistance in a circuit
A __________ provides an advantage over conventional belts because it includes a
twist in the belt which exposes all of its surface area to wear and tear so it
lasts longer. - (correct Answer) -
Which of the following fields might a mechanical engineer work in?
Construction
Automotive
Robotics
Materials
All of the above - (correct Answer) - All of the above
Conveyor systems are generally powered using all of the following except
__________________________. - (correct Answer) -
Pick the belt type that is described: Rollers are used to support a powered belt -
(correct Answer) - Roller Belt Conveyor
Pick the belt type that is described: Single loop made of countless interlocked
pieces that can be removed and replaced individually - (correct Answer) - Modular
Belt Conveyor
Pick the belt type that is described: Uses a powered continuous belt to move
objects, generally horizontally - (correct Answer) - Flat Belt Conveyor
Pick the belt type that is described: Used to carry items around corners, make
tight transfers, or maximize floor space - (correct Answer) - Curved Belt Conveyor
Pick the belt type that is described: Features vertical barriers that can lift
materials during steep inclines and declines without slipping - (correct Answer) -
Cleated Belt Conveyor
Pick the belt type that is described: Used to carry material to different heights -
(correct Answer) - Incline/Decline Belt Conveyor
Using a minimum of 3 complete sentences, describe a situation where you could use a
conveyor system to make a task easier. Identify the type of belt you would use and
why. - (correct Answer) - In stores we could use a conveyor system to move items
that are too high or low to see. We would use a cleated belt because it can lift
materials with them slipping. People would be able to move the belt manually to see
things on the high or low shelf.
