Scientific Notation - Converting Scientific Notation to Ordinary Numbers
In this learning activity you'll review an explanation of scientific notation and complete exercises to convert scientific notation to ordinary numbers.
Interpreting Engineering Drawings: Common Abbreviations
In this interactive object, learners read the common abbreviations used in engineering drawings and then test their knowledge in three short exercises.
In this animated and interactive object, learners view American National Standard and International Standard sheet sizes. A quiz completes the activity.
Basic Elements of Dimensions Used in Engineering Drawings
In this interactive object, students explore the basic elements and common terms associated with dimensions and leaders. A quiz completes the activity.
Learners examine the drawing symbols used for counterbore, countersink, spotface, radius, diameter, and depth. In the quiz that completes the activity, they associate these symbols with machining applications.
Basic Types of Dimensioning Used in Engineering Drawings
Learners examine the basic types of dimensioning including unidirectional and aligned systems, and linear, aligned, angled, arrowless, chain, datum, chart, tabular, radius, diameter, typical, and reference dimensions.
In this learning activity, you’ll identify information hackers use to gain access to a company, explain different types of social engineering attacks, and recognize different solutions to avoid these attacks.
Learners examine pictorial drawings used in engineering including sectioned and exploded drawings. A sketching quiz is provided to help the learner create simple pictorial sketches by using orthographic views and an isometric template.
In this interactive object, learners examine sectional views used in engineering drawings. The sections shown are full, half, offset, aligned, revolved, and broken-out. Learners match drawings of sectional views with the names of the views.
In this interactive object, learners examine standard and metric thread specifications used in engineering drawings. In a brief quiz, they identify various internal and external thread representations.
The TI-83 Plus Calculator: Using the Reciprocal Function for Complex Numbers
Learners examine the correct method for calculating complex reciprocals. The solution for total impedance of a parallel circuit in rectangular form is shown.
