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 animated object, learners examine the situation that occurs when any two links of a mechanism lie in the same plane or on a straight line. Crank-sliders and crank-rockers are shown.
An Algebraic Word Problem Involving Motion: Case 2
In this animated object, learners use an algebraic formula to solve the following problem: An airplane travels a certain distance with the wind in the same amount of time that it takes to travel a shorter distance against the wind. Given a constant wind speed, what is the speed of the plane without a wind?
In this interactive object, learners experience how the three primary flight controls allow a pilot to determine the motion of the airplane during flight.
Datum precedence is a fundamental principle in the design and manufacture of mechanical parts and assemblies.
It refers to the order of importance assigned to different datums, which are specific points, lines, or planes on a part, which are used as references for measurement and geometric tolerances.
