1. Developing Technology Glencoe Chapter 2 Section 3 Pages 52-57

2. A. Scientists and Engineers Scientists have knowledge of scientific principles. Scientists often work in research laboratories doing research. Engineer - A researcher who is responsible for bringing technology to the consumer

3. B. Solving Technological Problems Technological problems often create a demand for new scientific knowledge.

4. B. Solving Technological Problems 1. Finding Solutions and Identifying the Problem The first step in finding a technical solution is to define clearly the problem that you are trying to solve.

5. B. Solving Technological Problems 2. Proposing Solutions Once the problem is clearly defined, the search for the solution can begin.

6. B. Solving Technological Problems 3. Constraints Design restrictions for products from outside factors are known as constraints.

7. B. Solving Technological Problems 4. Performance Testing The type of performance test used depends upon the design. A computer simulation uses a computer to imitate the process to collect data or to test a process or procedure.

8. B. Solving Technological Problems 5. Complying with Laws and Regulations Local communities, states, and the federal government have laws and regulations regarding manufacturing processes, products, or buildings.

9. B. Solving Technological Problems 6. Prototypes and Pilot Plants A prototype is a full-scale model that is used to test a new product such as a new car design or a new airplane product. A pilot plant is a smaller version of the real production equipment that closely models actual manufacturing conditions.

10. B. Solving Technological Problems 7. Limiting System Failure Performance testing is one way to limit system failures. Other ways to limit system failures are to put redundant systems within a design. A control system is a device or collection of devices that monitors a system.

11. C. Intellectual Property Intellectual property is any type of creative work that has financial value and is protected by law. A patent is a legal document granted by the government giving an inventor the exclusive right to make, use, and sell an invention for a specific number of years.
