1. The use of a fluid (liquid or gas) to transmit power from one location to another.

2. Used to transport fluid in a circuit

3. An external force applied to an object.

4. The use of heat from within the Earth or from the atmosphere near oceans

5. The information produced by a computer

6. A condition where there are no net external forces acting upon a particle or rigid body and the body remains at rest or continues at a constant velocity.

7. A tool for systematically ranking alternatives according to a set of criteria

8. The collection - evaluation - and interpretation of data

9. Processes that remove material to change the size - shape - or surface of a part. There are two groups of separating processes: machining and shearing

13. Distance between adjacent threads in a screw.

14. A person or group for which product or service design efforts are intended.

15. A substance that tapers to a thin edge and is used for splitting - raising heavy bodies - or for tightening by being driven into something.

16. A type of pressure control valve that limits the maximum pressure in a hydraulic or pneumatic circuit.

17. A fundamental entity of nature that is transferred between parts of a system in the production of physical change within the system and usually regarded as the capacity for doing work

18. The total length of path over which the particle travels.

19. The net transfer of electric charge (electron movement along a path) per unit of time.

20. Test methods used to examine an object - material - or system causing permanent damage to its usefulness

21. An organization that works to develop and enforce regulations that implement environmental laws enacted by Congress

22. The resultant of a system of force is the vector sum of all forces.

23. The use of quality control techniques associated with a process.

24. The unit of potential difference symbolized as V

25. A tool for systematically ranking alternatives according to a set of criteria.
