ACTIVITY 4 Direction: Answer briefly the questions below. (5 pts. each) 1. Why is it important to use the right size of Phillips-type screwdriver? 2. Why do we need to consider the right size of drill bit in boring holes? 3. Why does soldering iron need a soldering stand?

 

Answer:

1. Phillips head screwdrivers are designed to "cam out", which means they are designed to slip out of the screw, so you dont over-tighten them. This also leads to their greatest pitfall.

2. These come in lots of shapes and sizes because some are more suited to cutting through certain materials than others. So, by knowing what size drill bit to use yoll be able to make the right hole in the right position.

3. This stand helps prevent the hot iron tip from coming in contact with flammable materials or causing accidental injury to your hand. Most soldering stations come with this built in and also include a sponge or brass sponge for cleaning the tip.
