Pumps, for example, are mechanical items, requiring mechanical engineering in their design and use.

Well Briefly, "Mechanical", in essence, means to move or, motion, movement etc. and the study of it. So, What it means to me is, the engineering of moving objects or of similar nature.

Hope this helped.

How difficult is a mechanical engineering degree?

Depends on how difficult you find Physics and Calculus.


What is a Bachelor of Science in mechanical Engineering compared to Degree in Mechanical Engineering?

It's the same thing. If you have a degree in Mechanical Engineering, you have a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering.


Can you do robotics after diploma in mechanical engineering?

Mechanical engineering will help you with the physics of creating the structure; how to make a robotic arm that will survive the forces involved, where to put actuators that will cause a robotic component to move in the way you want, how to calculate the capacity of a robotic component when using a specific actuator and other similar MECHANICAL engineering factors. For the controls, you may want some computer experience as well. Some of the mechanical engineering colleges include essential computer programming.


Does mechanical engineering require math?

You need to take up to 4 years of calculus, as well as many science classes in physics and chemistry. Classes in algebra and trigonometry may be prerequisites for calculus.


What is the process of aeronautical engineering study?

Either, do BTEC NATIONAL DIPLOMA IN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING (2 YEAR COURSE level 2/3) or AN AERONAUTICAL ENGINEERING COURSE IN CERTAIN COLLEGES, LIKE SUSSEX, or you could do an APPRENTICESHIP IN AERONAUTICAL/AEROSPACE ENGINEERING and earn while you train. :). The Grades you need will be A*-C in Maths, English and Science (Physics) :)

What kind of educational background do you need for mechanical engineering?

a background in engineering, such as uni degree and maths and physics electives


Architecture or mechanical engineering?

Architecture if you are more of the artistic type, but also somewhat interested in math and physics, which you will need to understand if you are to be an architect. If you are very much into mathematics and physics, but not interested in art and design, then mechanical engineering would be better for you.

What is the significance of the negative coefficient of friction in the context of physics and mechanical engineering?

The negative coefficient of friction is significant in physics and mechanical engineering because it indicates that the friction force is acting in the opposite direction of the applied force. This can affect the motion and stability of objects, leading to unique challenges and considerations in designing and analyzing mechanical systems.


What branch of science involves the study of all forms of energy?

For thermal energy it is thermodynamics, for mechanical energy it would be mechanics or mechanical engineering, for electrical energy electrical engineering, and for nuclear energy, nuclear physics. There doesn't seem to be one branch of science for energy as a whole.


What is mechanical advantage of a machine?

In physics and engineering, mechanical advantage(MA) is the factor by which a mechanism multiplies the force or torque put into it. Generally, the mechanical advantage is calculated as follows: or more simply:
