air resistance
this is a limitation or restriction
constraint
this is the weight the parachute carries
load
a variable is
likely to change
this connects the canopy to the load
suspension lines
The engineering and design process consist of four steps which are
ask,imagine,plan,improve
Earths takes about 365 days to around the sun
revolve
when the earths spins on its it around the sun
axis rotates
it takes the earth or to complete a full rotation around the sun
1 day or 24 hours
the tilt the earth and the revolution of the earth around the sun causes change in
seasons

moon phase
a full orbit of an object around another object is called a
revolution
some of a piece wood are how strong it is and how smooth it is
properties
some that can be used to make roads are concrete,flat rocks,tar,and gravel
materials
is anything that people make solve a problem
technology
when you a chair, you need to think about how big and how strong it needs to be
design
are people who use math, science, and imagination to solve problem to meet human needs and
wants
