Document Summary

Engineer is a person who uses science math and judgement to create operate or maintain devices or objects. We started off with civil and mining eng in the early 1800"s then branched off. Engineering is a team sport with: eng, sci"s, techs, social. Eng"s provide a link between theory and practice. Ceab publishes a list of accredited eng schools. 1/8 eng design (must be 1/2 plus the eng sci) o. Derived from base units ie. i newton =1kg m/s^2. Must use units on each value ie. 2. 2 km x 2. 4 km not 2. 2 x 4. 5 km. The exponent of the 10 is always a multiple of 3. Property of a physical object that can be represented by using a real. The interval around which the true value lies is the uncertainty. True value - measured value = measurement error. In repeated measurements a voltmeter could be attached in slightly. Better to do it multiple times and average it out o.
