2. Definition A task or operation seen in terms of how successfully it is performed therefore The Performance of a Product is how well it perform its Function.

3. Determining the Performance of any product, depends on what you want to test. Areas that a Product can be tested in: Ergonomics - aspects of physiology Materials -suitability for purpose Safety

4. Ford 0 – 60 mph in 13 seconds 65 MPG In terms of SPEED, the Ferrari performs much better but, in terms of MILES PER GALLON the Ford is the better performer. Ferrari 0 – 60 mph in 3.2 seconds 12 MPG

5. Both the Alessi and the Bugatti kettles will boil 1litre of water in approximately the same time. However, the Alessi kettle will be easier to carry as the handle is on top, but the Bugatti will be an easier kettle to pour as the handle is positioned on the back (Ergonomics). Alessi Bugatti

6. Both cork screws can remove a cork from a bottle. However, it will be easier to remove a cork with the cork screw on the right due to the advantage of it having leavers (Ergonomics). The left hand cork screw will be made from stronger materials as you need more strength to remove the cork from the bottle (Materials).

7. Both seat belts (harnesses) are designed to protect. However, the race car driver will be protected much better by the 5 point harness as it makes contact with the body in more places (Safety). Both are made from similar webbing material that does not wear through use or snap in the event of a crash. (Materials). 3 Point Harness 5 Point Harness
