Overview:
The goal of this lesson is to apply scientific skills of experimentation, measurement and analysis to a tribot's movement. The relationships between the Move block Power parameter and the robot's travel time and speed are explored.
Objectives:
Students will be able to:
1. Plot the robot travel time versus power level relationship
2. Predict the distance a robot will travel based on the size of its wheel
3. Calculate how many rotations/degrees are required to travel a given distance
4. Demonstrate actual robot travel distance versus calculated values
