Question 8

Nonferrous metals include such composites as carbon, alloy, and stainless.

Question 9

JIT is the process of warehousing parts so that they are available when required.

Question 10

Composite materials include a group of materials that are made up of reinforced plastic, metal-matrix, and ceramic-matrix materials.

Question 11

Methods used to process materials to the desired shapes can adversely affect the product's final properties, service life, and cost.

Question 12

In design, when casting a part, it is a good idea to not to enlarge a thin piece of material as it intersects a thick piece of material because of the additional cost of material required.
