The objectives of this module are as follows: (1) Perform background research todetermine the velocity of a golf ball upon impact and estimate the Reynolds number. (2)Develop an experiment using the 0-100 MPH wind tunnel to measure the drag coefficient vs.Reynolds number of a golf ball. (3) Repeat the experiment on a smooth, golf ball sized sphere.(4) Make a plot of drag coefficient vs. Re number for both experiments and interpret the resultsin terms their impact on the game of golf.

) viewed as a socio- technical system, this course explores the relationship between responsible engineering and the development and maintenance of resiliency in communities that historically have been ignored or marginalized by engineers and the organizations that employ them. Through in-depth readings, class discussions and projects, students will 1) study and analyze different forms of responsibility in engineering and resiliency in complex communities like ASGM communities; 2) critically explore strengths and limitations of dominant methods in engineering problem solving, design, and research for working with these communities; 3) develop understandings of effective forms of responsible

A mentor is useful in helpingthem come up with a plan to either alter their course or to disengage and return, while validating theirworth (Byars-Winston et al, 2015). Some mentees report talking to family, going for a walk, or seeking ahigher power. All these can help them to center themselves without internalizing the issues, while stillachieving their goals.
