Which of the following would be the BEST method to test this prototype? a. Place the mower on a field of freshly cut grass. Leave the machine there for three hours. Return to the field later to pick up the mower. b. First: identify a need. Second: Develop several designs, Third: Build a prototype, Fourth: Test the prototype, Fifth: Modify and retest the prototype c. Design a computer simulation of the robotic lawn mower. Practice cutting the grass in this simulated environment for one hour. d. Take the machine to a grassy field. Turn it on, leave it there, and come back in two hours to see if the grass is mowed.

What would be the next logical step engineers would take to design and produce this laptop computer? a. b. c. d. build a new type of laptop battery research current laptop technology Build a prototype computer Test the computer
7. A student had two identical pans. The student filled each pan with 20 grams of water before placing both pans in the same freezer. The water in Pan 1 took 20 minutes to freeze. The water in Pan 2 took 30 minutes to freeze. Which of these conclusions best explains the difference in the amount of time it took the two pans of water to freeze? a. The water in pan 2 had a greater final mass than the water in Pan 1. b. The water in Pan 2 had a greater starting volume than the water in Pan 1. c. The water in Pan 2 had a higher starting temperature than the water in Pan 1. d. The water in Pan 2 had a lower starting temperature than the water in Pan 1.

Technology and Society ■ Technology provides solutions for many types of social, and economic needs. ■ Intended Benefit An intended benefit is the positive purpose for which a technology is designed to be used. Cell phones allow people to stay connected with others and to call for help. .
Unintended Consequences are uses or results that engineers do not purposely include in the design of products. An unintended consequence can be beneficial. These towers have been disguised as trees to minimize their detracting from landscape
Can I: Describe the difference between adaptive and assisted bioengeneering? Bioengineering ■ The application of engineering to living things, such as humans and plants, is called bioengineering.
Can I: Describe the difference between adaptive and assisted bioengeneering? Bioengineered technologies can be classified as either assistive or adaptive. Assistive technologies are developed to help organisms without changing them. Boys gets prosthetic hand made by 3 -D printer
Can I: Describe the difference between adaptive and assisted bioengeneering? Adaptive bioengineered products change the living organism. Prosthetic heart is an artificial organ that is permanently Implanted inside the human body
Can I: Describe the difference between adaptive and assisted bioengeneering? Assistive or Adaptive?
Can I? Describe the 3 different types of models? TOC # 11 Scientific Models Notes
Can I: Describe the 3 different types of models? A representation of an object or a system is called a model or prototype.
Can I: Describe the 3 different types of models? 3 Types of Scientific Models ■ 1. Physical Models look like thing they represent. For example, the model flower shown at right can be used to learn the parts of a real flower.
Can I: Describe the 3 different types of models? 2. Mathematical Models are made up of mathematical equations and data. The weather map shown below is a mathematical model.
Can I: Describe the 3 different types of models? 3. Conceptual Models are systems of ideas or are based on making comparisons with familiar things to explain an idea.
Can I: Describe the 3 different types of models? Models Are Just the Right Size ■ Models are often used to represent things that are very small or very large. ■ For example, a cell in your body or the planet Earth would need a model for you to be able to study it.
Can I: Describe the 3 different types of models? Models are often used to help illustrate and explain scientific theories. In science, a theory is a unifying explanation for a broad range of hypotheses and observations that have been supported by testing.
Can I: Describe the 3 different types of models? 3 types of Models (p 18 -19) Write down 1 limitation for each of these Mathematical Model Conceptual Model Physical Model
