Activity 3.2 Unit Conversion


Activity 3.2 Unit Conversion
Procedure







Conclusion
1.      Why would you have to know how to convert measurements when looking at a technical drawing?
Sometimes technical drawings from another place may not use the system of measurement as the local country. Hence conversion is needed to ensure precise measurements are obtained.


2.  How can you use units help you solve a problem?
Units help solve a problem by helping identify the number's type of measurement. As well as the size of the measurement.

Activity 5.5a CAD Model Features Part 1 Conclusion 1.          What 3D CAD functions could be used to create a wire coat hanger? We can use sweep after drawing line and circle for thickness of wire on a plane starting. 2.          For each of the following, sketch a 2D shape and an axis of rotation that you could use to model each of the following solid forms using the Revolve function within 3D modeling software. Dimension each sketch and indicate the axis of rotation that you would use. You may use software to check your answers. a.          A solid cylinder with a diameter of 3.5 in. and a height of 7 in. Be sure to dimension the shape. Dotted line is axis of rotation. b.          A solid sphere using the Revolve function. What rotation angle would you use? ...

Activity 3.1b Linear Measurement with US Customary Units Procedure Conclusion 1.                   When you look at a drawing, how do you know if you are looking at U S Customary or SI measurements? Why is it important for an engineer to know this piece of information? US customary system has fractions. Moreover SI measurements are only in power of tens while US customary system is not. Engineers need to know this information or else they will end with the wrong measurements, which leads to  too little or too large designs.
