Quiz: Hoop Gliders ProcessOnline version Quiz on hoop glider process by Benjamin D Morgan 1 Which is used to solve a problem by designing a product? a Left picture b Right Picture 2 Which is used to research/find out information? a Left picture b Right picture 3 Our problem in this project is to design a hoop glider that travels the farthest. What step is this? a Step 1 of the Scientific Method b Step 2 of the Scientific Method c Step 1 of the Engineering Design Process 4 We performed experiments on Hoop Gliders by using what? a Engineering Design Process b Scientific Method 5 Performing experiments using the scientific method is which step of the engineering design process? a Step 1: Define the Problem b Step 2: Generate Concepts (Research) c Step 3: Develop a Solution d Step 4: Construct and Test a Prototype 6 We performed experiments on hoop gliders to.... a Figure out how they worked b Design a hoop glider c Build a hoop glider 7 Sail Planes (gliders) rise due to... a Propellor b Engine c Warm air currents d Cool air currents 8 The hoop giders we are designing are... a Inventions b Innovations c Neither an invention or innovation d Both an invention and innovation 9 The hoop gliders we are designing are... a Simple technologies b Complex technologies c Not technologies 10 The dependent variable is? a What we make different in an experiment b What we measure in an experiment c What we keep the same in an experiment 11 The independent variable is? a What we make different in an experiment b What we measure in an experiment c What we keep the same in an experiment 12 The controlled variable is? a What we keep the same in an experiment b What we make different in an experiment c What we measure in an experiment 13 The dependent variable in ALL of our hoop glider experiments was? a How long the hoop glider stayed in the air b Size of the front hoop, length of the straw, weight of the glider, & number of hoops on the glider c Building the hoop gliders d How far the hoop glider traveled 14 The independent variables we tested in our experiments on the hoop gliders was/were what? a The distance the hoop glider traveled b Size of the front hoop, length of the straw, weight of the glider, & number of hoops on the glider c How long the hoop glider stayed in the air d All choices 15 Generally speaking what did we conclude during our research of size of the front O Hoop? a The larger the front hoop the farther it traveled b The front O hoop does effect the distance c The front O hoop does NOT effect the distance d The smaller the front hoop the farther it traveled 16 Generally speaking what did we conclude during our research of the length of the straw? a The straw length does effect the distance b The straw length does effect the distance c The longer the straw the farther the hoop glider traveled d The shorter the straw the farther the hoop glider traveled 17 Generally speaking what did we conclude during our research of the number of hoops on the straw? a The more hoops the farther it travels b The fewer the hoops the farther it travels c The number of hoops does effect the distance d The number of hoops does NOT effect the distance 18 Generally speaking what did we conclude during our research of the weight of the glider? a The weight does effect the distance b The weight does NOT effect the distance c The heavier the farther it travels d Thelighter the hoop glider the farther it travels 19 During our experiments our conclusions (final claims) were based on... a Our observations (data) that occurred during the experiment b What we believe should happen during the experiment 20 Conclusions (final claims) are based on.... a Our opinions of what should happen. b Evidence (observations & data) during experiments 21 If we think that our data is wrong that we collected during our experiment then we should... a Write a conclusion (final claim) based on what we think the answer is AND ignore the data b Write a conclusion (final claim) based on the data only AND ignore our personal beliefs/opinions 22 We develop a solution (Step 3) in the Hoop Glider Project by... a Performing experiments on hoop gliders to see how they work b Drawing a picture of what our design will be c Building the hoop glider that we are designing d Testing our hoop glider AND seeing what works/doesn't work 23 We Construct and Test a Prototype (Step 4) in the Hoop Glider Project by... a Drawing a picture of what our design will be b Performing experiments on hoop gliders to see how they work c Building the hoop glider that we are designing and then throwing it d Testing our hoop glider AND seeing what works/doesn't work 24 We Evaluate our Solution (Step 5) in the Hoop Glider Project by... a Drawing a picture of what our design will be b Building the hoop glider that we are designing and then throwing it c Performing experiments on hoop gliders to see how they work d Testing our hoop glider AND seeing what works/doesn't work 25 Once we throw and evaluate our hoop glider once we... a We evaluate the design AND go back to Step 3 (Develop a Solution) b Are done with the Engineering Design Process. The project is over 26 We go through steps 3 (Develop a Solution), Step 4 (Construct & Test a Prototype), and Step 5 (Evaluate the Solution) a 1 time only b 2 times c 3-6 times d Until your design works the way you want it 27 What is a prototype? a The real glider we are making b A smaller version of a real glider
