Across
  1. 5. the ratio between the size of the drawing and the actual size
  2. 8. a group of components working together that relies on forces and motion to achieve a goal
  3. 11. conditions that need to be met to be successful
  4. 15. a computer-based, virtual representation of a design
  5. 17. a group of components working together that go through input, processes, output, and feedback to meet or maintain a certain condition
  6. 19. to examine something closely and carefully
  7. 20. a type of simple machine that is an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder; used to hold objects together or raise objects when turned
  8. 22. the creative development of structures, machines, or processes to solve a problem
  9. 23. a type of representation that shows an object as if it was being viewed from a corner
  10. 24. limits on options for a solution
  11. 25. a type of simple machine that is a rigid bar that rotates on a fixed point like a seesaw
  12. 28. someone who works with systems that deal with the flow of electricity
  13. 29. simplified drawings that represent things
  14. 30. a type of simple machine that is a wheel with a groove for a rope or cable to pass over; used to lift heavy objects
  15. 32. a problem solver who works on optimizing manufacturing
  16. 33. basic mechanical devices that make work easier
  17. 35. a model used to demonstrate the look or function of the final design
  18. 37. the making of decisions that are morally right and just
  19. 38. how forces (pushes and pulls) affect the motion of objects
  20. 39. a drawing that includes details like measurements and views from multiple angles to help explain the design
Down
  1. 1. a type of representation that shows one object but from multiple views, typically the front, side, and top or bottom
  2. 2. the practice of watering crops
  3. 3. a group of components working together that are parts you can see and touch
  4. 4. a real, three-dimensional representation of a design
  5. 6. to make something work automatically
  6. 7. a program used to animate and/or test a product digitally
  7. 9. a group of electrical components working together to achieve a goal
  8. 10. a type of simple machine made up of two back-to-back inclined planes that move through an object or objects to push them apart
  9. 12. someone who focuses on designing and building machines that solve problems
  10. 13. the ratio of output force generated from a machine to the input force applied
  11. 14. a version of a model that is identical in layout to the final model but with all the sizes scaled down
  12. 16. a step-by-step procedure in which someone comes up with a plan for a product
  13. 18. a free-hand drawing that doesn’t have a lot of detail and is meant more for quickly sharing an idea
  14. 21. things that show how objects look
  15. 26. a type of simple machine that is a flat surface tilted at an angle used to raise or lower objects
