A bridge must hold 3 blocks. Which sentence states the design goal?
- Be the tallest bridge
- Use a favorite color
- Hold 3 blocks
Which order follows an engineering design process?
- improve, test, build, problem
- problem, build, test, improve
- build, problem, improve, test
The bridge goal is 3 blocks, but it held 1. What does the test show?
- The design needs improvement.
- Testing should stop forever.
- The goal was met.
A paper bridge bends in the middle. Which change best uses that evidence?
- Add support under the middle.
- Change the block colors.
- Remove every support.
What conclusion matches the bridge test graph?
- Both designs held the same.
- The new design held more.
- No test was completed.
Which measurable success rule fits a bridge required to support 3 blocks?
- Use a favorite color
- Hold 3 blocks
- Be the tallest bridge
Which sequence moves from a stated need through evidence-based revision?
- problem, build, test, improve
- test, improve, problem, build
- improve, test, build, problem
Compare the 1-block result with the 3-block goal. What follows?
- Testing should stop forever.
- The design needs improvement.
- The blocks caused weather.
Test evidence shows the bridge center is weak. What revision targets that failure?
- Paint the top blue.
- Change the block colors.
- Add support under the middle.
Which comparison is supported by the before-and-after bridge bars?
- The first design held more.
- No test was completed.
- The new design held more.
