ROBOTICS SEMESTER 1 FINAL
EXAM REVIEW QUESTIONS WITH
COMPLETE SOLUTIONS
speed and climbing platforms. - Answer-Traction wheels are good for
Omni wheels - Answer-What wheels can drive both forwards and
backwards, and side to side, but can't go diagonally? (not
including an X drive)
Mecanum
wheels - Answer-What wheels are the most fun to use, but also the
hardest to code? (select all that apply)
Place weight near the top of the robot
Be on the knights or mages team
Create a narrow base - Answer-All of the following will cause your robot
to tip over
Place wheels in a diamond-like formation
(unbreakable) - Answer-How do you properly place wheels to construct
an X-Drive?
Both Aluminum and Steel are allowed in VEX robotics
Aluminum is lighter than steel.
Steel is used to increase the durability of the robot
Aluminum bends easier than Steel - Answer-Aluminum v Steel
4 motor drive (geared for
speed) - Answer-Which robot would move the fastest? (all motors are V5
and follow V5 rules)
C/C++ - Answer-What language does PROS use?
Abstracting methods to make code
easier to read - Answer-Which of the following is considered
programming best practice?
, Shaft encoder/quadrature encoder - Answer-What type of sensor can
measure the position of infinite rotation applications (ie: drive shafts,
flywheel)?
a system of sorting and direction functions created by the user to define
the operation of
equipment based on various monitored input conditions. - Answer-
Program:
A specialized computer with a logical program to direct equipment
actions based on inputs and other information filtered by the program. -
Answer-Programmable Logic Controller (PLC):
In initialization code - Answer-Where is the best place to put an
autonomous selector code using an LCD?
the rules governing how we enter program so that the robots controller
can
understand the command. - Answer-Programming Languages:
nylock - Answer-Identify the part:
bevel gear - Answer-Identify the part:
Sprockets - Answer-Treads ride on
False - Answer-Bent axles should be used on robot.
pop rivet - Answer-On a bearing block, these can be substituted with
Screws/Bolts for stability.
6 points and 2 purple cubes - Answer-47. What do you get for winning
autonomous in Tower Takeover?
66 cubes, with 4 preloads and 2 for the
autonomous winner - Answer-How many cubes are there on the Tower
Takeover?
5.5 inches - Answer-How long are the sides of each cube?
7 towers, with 2 restricted for an alliance - Answer-How many towers are
there in Tower Takeover?
