None

Given the image of the robot and the cross section of the robot, which of the following statement is true?

There are only 3 motors on the robot

The robot is only able to drive forward and back

Moving the arm motor for 230 degrees will not move the arm for 230 degrees

This robot will need to be configured as a 4 wheel drive train motor setup

None

Which of the following statement is a possible reason for the sensor coding blocks to be missing from the code drawer?

Sensor is not connected to the Brain

Sensor was not added in the Devices tab of the robot configuration drawer

The Brain is switched off

Sensor is faulty

None

Which of the following statement is true about the difference between a drive train motor setup and individual motor setup?

Programmer cannot set the motor braking type in a drive train motor setup

Programmer cannot turn the robot without a drive train motor setup

The angles in a individual motor setup refers to the angle the motor will turn, whereas in a drive train, the angle refers to the heading of the robot

Programmer cannot move the robot without a drive train motor setup

None

What will the robot do if both motors connected to wheels spin in the same direction at the same velocity?

Turns in a big circle

Does not move

Spin in place

Drive straight

None

Which of the following statement is true about the Optical Sensor

Optical Sensor cannot be used to detect an object

Optical Sensor can be used to detect colors regardless of surrounding light conditions

Optical Sensor can only detect up to 6 different colors

Optical Sensor cannot detect ambient light brightness level

None

Under what condition will the robot drive forward?

If the obstacle is more than 15 cm in front of the robot when the program first ran

If the obstacle is less than 15 cm in front of the robot

If the obstacle is more than 150 mm in front of the robot

If the obstacle is more than 150 cm in front of the robot

None

When the programmer runs the code from the VEXCode IQ, but discovered that it is not running the same program. Which of the following statement could be the reason?

The USB Cable was unplugged

The USB Cable was damaged

The new program file was not downloaded into the Brain

It is a software bug of the VEXCode IQ

None

10.

The programmer wants the robot to turn right for 90 degrees every time the optical sensor detects red objects, left for 90 degrees if it detects green objects, and stop moving when any other colors are detected. Which of the statement is not the problem to fix?

Add the condition for when the Optical Sensor detects green for the "else if" condition

Change to turn right when the Optical Sensor detects red

Change to an "If Else" control block

Change Optical Sensor to color mode

None

11.

How does Vex IQ robots detect the direction the robot is facing?

Distance Sensor

Inertial Sensor

Optical and Distance Sensors

Optical Sensor

None

12.

Which of the following statement is false about the Touch LED?

Touch LED sensor can be programmed to display 14 different color settings or switched off

Touch LED can detect the touch of a finger

Touch LED sensor can be programmed to start or stop the robot

Touch LED sensor can only be used for lighting purposes

None

13.

Which of the program tells the robot to move forward as long as there are no obstacle 5 cm away from the robot?

None

14.

Which of the following program draws the image below?

None

15.

What does the Distance Sensor measure?

Distance Sensor detects the size of the obstacle to determine distance

Distance Sensor sends out a laser pulse and measures the amount of time it takes for the pulse to be reflected back to the sensor to determine the distance

Distance Sensor detects the change in brightness level of the obstacle to determine distance

Distance Sensor emits ultrasonic sound waves and measures the amount of time it takes for the sound to be reflected back to the sensor to determine the distance

None
