Bottle Rocket Assignment:
Design Problem And Design Brief
We had problems because we did not have two 2 L bottles.
Design Problem And Design Brief
We had problems because we did not have two 2 L bottles.
Analysis
I was questioning the structure and aerodynamics of our rocket.
I was questioning the structure and aerodynamics of our rocket.
Synthesis
I think that our bridge will be a success because of its aerodynamics and structure.

Evaluation
I think that we could have made the Styrofoam wings better to make the rocket more aerodynamic.

Egg Vessel Assignment:
Design Problem and Design Brief
We had problems with how to connect the parachute to the body.
Analysis
I was questioning if our egg vessel would actually fly and softly hit the ground or if the parachute would not hold and drop on the ground and break the egg.
Synthesis
I think our parachute will be able to help prevent the egg from breaking when we drop it.
Evaluation
I think we could have made our parachute better to be positive that it is able to completely hold the egg and the body.

Bridge Building Assignment:
Design Problem and Design Brief
We had difficulties picking the right structure for the bridge. Also we tried to put as many triangle shapes as possible. Also we tried our bests to keep the bridge from twisting
Analysis
I was questioning how much the bridge would be able to hold because it was not completely level on the top and bottom.
Synthesis
I think that our bridge will hold over 100 to 200 lbs.
we haven’t put pressure to it yet so its an estimation.
Evaluation
I think we could of built our structure better to prevent it from twisting.
The Weigh In
Our bridge held 210 lbs. it broke quickly because with the structure that we chose it allowed the bridge to twist therefore breaking easily.

MacBook Pro
Name: Mike
Report Due Date: February, 24, 2009
WEEKLY CASE STUDY REPORT
Title of Case Study: MacBook Pro
List and define three significant words or terms discovered when completing this case.
1. Unibody- A flawless enclosure carved from a single piece of aluminum
2. Environmentally friendly- the MacBook is made from recyclable aluminum and glass earning it “ENERGY STAR” certification
3. Trackpad- On the MacBook pro there is more room to click and more room to track
List two (2) names of significant people, locations, or companies contained in the case study
1. Apple Designers
2. Apple Engineers
Write three (3) to four (4) sentences which clearly summarizes case study.
The case study is a MacBook notebook. It has a unibody enclosure and is great for the environment; you can almost recycle the whole Mac book because it’s made from aluminum and glass. "It’s an Energy Star compliant, which means it meets the government standard for energy efficiency".
