QA 6

1. What types of measurement systems are there?
------Measurement is the assignment of a number to a characteristic of an object or event, which can be compared with other objects or events
2. why  do  engineers label  all measurements ?
 ------Engineering drawing and artistic drawing are both types of drawing, and either may be called simply "drawing" when the context is implicit.
3.what types of measurement are you familiar with?
----Whether you have patients, employees, or event attendees your Net Promoter Score gives you a quick way to get feedback by asking the ultimate 
4.what can you measure with the system of units?
-------As the number of possible tests for even simple software components is practically infinite, all software testing uses some strategy to select tests that are feasible for the available time and resources

QA 5

1. What types of energy are there?
-----Here’s what the types you mentioned mean, and a few other types too.2.How do engineers make cars safer ?-----With a new lightweight construction technology, researchers are making it possible to do both. The result is less fuel consumption and lower manufacturing costs.




QA 4

1. What jobs do different tools
---- secure the appliance in vise to hold the lamp in place and free your hands.
2. why is it important to have they right tool.
----Remove screws from the covering plate with a screwdriver or an electric drill remove  the plate to reveal the wiring inside.

4. How do simple machines make work easier?
----Simple machines may convert one type of force to another, change the direction of an applied force or trade distance travelled for force applied

QA 3

1.how to shapes relate  to engineering ?
---There are an extensive mackerel and herring fishery, and motor engineering works.
2. what different shapes do engineers use to construct buildings.
---There are extensive collieries, and the other industries include cotton manufactures, calico-printing, hat-making, iron-founding, engineering and the manufacture of firebricks and tiles.

QA 2

1.what kinds of materials do people use to build structures?
-- Building material is any material which is used for construction purposes. Many naturally occurring substances, such as clay, rocks,sand, and wood, even twigs and leaves, have been used to construct buildings
2.Why are some materials better for projects than others ?
-- metal atom's aptitude to lose electrons to other atoms causes it to be more reactive. Involved in the scientifically determined aptitude is the speed at which a metal atom can lose electrons, as well as the substances with which the atom is likely to react

QA1

1. technicians maintain and improve the products create.
-  a person skilled in the technicalities of some subject
2. engineers apply matematics and science they create and improve products that people use.
- The definition of a technician is a person whose job or training involves a specific technical process, or is someone skilled or trained in a specific art or craft

ESSAY 1

I am demonstrating the academic skills that are essential to perform at a high caliber as a college student. Since being in college biology I have introduced to the skill that I need to succeed in college. Week one I received a CR grade, week two I received a 70%, week three I received an 80%, week four I received a 77%, week five I received a 77%, and week six I received a 60% due to major lab grade. The grades that I have received are from KS connect.
I think with the help of my metacognitive skills, I have been able to succeed in this class. The three metacognitive skills that stick out to me the most are; self-regulation, meta-memory, and meta-comprehension.
I use self regulation by checking the weekly assignments on black board, knowing that it is my job to see find the assignments by myself. I think that this skill is needed in college because the professors are not going to hold your hand throughout college and they expect you take the initiative and do things on your own. The next skill is meta-memory, or knowing your own memory strategies. This skill, to me, was very important on our first exam. I learned that I learn best by repeating things over and over again. Having good studying strategies will help you in college because there will be many tests and I will need to have good studying strategies. Last but not least is meta-comprehension, being able to monitor the degree in which we understand is the most important. After self-evaluation, I learned that in order for me to really focus is that I need to give my full attention, and leave all of my distractions at the door.
