MAJOR: MECHANICAL ENGINEERING. “The important thing is not to stop questioning‚ because curiosity has its own reasons for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity‚ of life and of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery everyday” -Albert Einstein. Yes! It is quite true that with proper nurturing of this curiosity one can transform a fascination into an excellent mechanical faculty

engineer. I am interested in SIUE’s Mechanical Engineering program. Mechanical Engineering is an exciting career field. In my youth‚ I was constantly designing and building an assortment of contraptions out of LEGO’s and K’NEX pieces. These objects included rollercoasters‚ cars‚ buildings‚ tractors‚ and many other machines. Growing up on a farm‚ I have always been interested in agriculture. There are many reasons why I’m interested in the Mechanical Engineering program at SIUE. This program

Samuel Haynes English 1101 – Mechanical Engineering Professor Raymond October 15‚ 2012 ME At the start of the Industrial Revolution‚ in the 18th century the steam engine was first produced. From this production it gave an enormous start to all machinery of any type and every type. As a result‚ a new major classification of engineering was formed due to the intuition of machines and tools being developed. Soon after this‚ the Institution of Mechanical Engineers was founded in Birmingham‚ England

all used in the mechanism of a bicycle. Between the simple machines and complex assemblies‚ several intermediate classes can be defined‚ which may be termed "compound machines" or "machine elements". The mechanical advantage of a compound machine is simply the product of the mechanical advantages of the simple machines of which it is composed. There are six types of simple machines ------------------------------------------------- Inclined plane An inclined plane is a board or other flat surface

Nifty Lifting Machine Use complete sentences to answer the questions. What simple machines did you incorporate into you nifty lifting machine? The simple machines that I incorporated into my nifty lifting machine was a pulley and a lever. The pulley was used to help lift up the weight. This was accomplished by having string that was connected to a crank runs through the pulley and at the end of a string is a magnet. The magnet is used to latch on to the metal can. The lever we used is used to
