    1. The "Appearance" icon is a:

    • Colored Circle

    • Colored Triangle

    • Paper Clip

    • Check Mark

    Correct Answer
    A. Colored Circle
    Explanation
    The "Appearance" icon is represented by a colored circle. This is because a circle is a common symbol used to represent the appearance or visual aspect of something. It is a simple and recognizable shape that can convey the idea of an object's overall look or design. The use of color further emphasizes the visual nature of the icon and suggests that it is related to the appearance of something.

    4. Applying a material can force the color and appearance to change?

    • True

    • False

    • Do not check this one

    • Do not check this one

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Applying a material can force the color and appearance to change because materials have different properties that can alter the way light interacts with an object. For example, applying a red material to a white object will make it appear red. Similarly, applying a glossy material to a matte object will make it appear shiny. Therefore, applying a material can indeed change the color and appearance of an object.

    7. Open cylinder file name SWFUND2.2.Q7 from folder 2.2 Materials, Colors & Mass Properties.  Save a copy with your initials in front of it using "Save As".  This material of the part should be "Brass". What is the mass of the part in lbs?

    • .15 pounds

    • .12 pounds

    • .10 pounds

    • .09 pounds

    Correct Answer
    A. .09 pounds
    Explanation
    The given answer of .09 pounds is correct because it is the only option that matches the mass of the part in lbs as stated in the question.

    5. If an applied material/texture does NOT appear shiny and/or realistic, this could be because...

    • RealView is not turned on

    • The video card being used does not support RealView

    • Either A or B

    • Neither A or B

    Correct Answer
    A. Either A or B
    Explanation
    If an applied material/texture does not appear shiny and/or realistic, it could be because RealView is not turned on or the video card being used does not support RealView. RealView is a feature in computer graphics software that enhances the visual appearance of materials and textures by simulating real-world lighting effects. If RealView is not turned on or the video card does not support it, the materials/textures may not have the desired level of shininess and realism. Therefore, the correct answer is either A or B.

    6. To view/see the Mass Properties of a part, look on the:

    • Features Tab

    • Sketch Tab

    • Evaluate Tab

    • Any of the Above

    Correct Answer
    A. Evaluate Tab
    Explanation
    To view/see the Mass Properties of a part, one should look on the Evaluate Tab. This tab is specifically designed for analyzing and evaluating various aspects of the part, including its mass properties. It provides tools and options to calculate and display information such as volume, surface area, center of gravity, and mass of the part. Therefore, the Evaluate Tab is the correct location to access and analyze the mass properties of a part.

    3. You can remove the "education mark" off of files created in an educational version of SolidWorks?

    • True

    • False

    • Do not check this one

    • Do not check this one

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The correct answer is False. This means that you cannot remove the "education mark" off of files created in an educational version of SolidWorks.

    8. Use the "Appearance" task pane to apply a "Gold appearance to the part.  Now, what is the mass of the part?

    • .15 pounds

    • .12 pounds

    • .10 pounds

    • .09

    Correct Answer
    A. .09
    Explanation
    The given answer of .09 pounds for the mass of the part suggests that applying a "Gold appearance" to the part does not change its mass. This implies that the appearance modification does not involve adding any additional material to the part, which would affect its weight. Therefore, the mass remains the same at .09 pounds.

    9. Change the material of the part from brass to rubber.  Now, what is the mass of the part?

    • .01 pounds

    • .02 pounds

    • .06 pounds

    • .09 pounds

    Correct Answer
    A. .01 pounds
    Explanation
    Changing the material of the part from brass to rubber would result in a decrease in mass. Rubber is less dense than brass, so the part would weigh less. The correct answer of .01 pounds suggests that the change in material resulted in a minimal decrease in mass.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Open file SWFUND2.2Q10, it is a 3" diameter sphere.  What material makes it the heaviest?

    • Brass

    • Plain Carbon Steel

    • Copper

    • 1060 Alloy (aluminum

    • Nickel

    • Pure Gold

    • Pure Silver

    • Water

    Correct Answer
    A. Pure Gold
    Explanation
    Pure gold is the heaviest material in the given options because it has a high density. Density is a measure of how much mass is packed into a given volume, and gold has a higher density compared to the other materials listed. Therefore, a 3" diameter sphere made of pure gold would be the heaviest among the options provided.
