Which of the following is NOT true of a Drivetrain?
It consists of two or more motors
It needs to be configured in VEXcode IQ
It makes you have to code individual motors in order to drive your robot forward
It makes it easier for you to code your robot to drive or turn specific distances
Which of the following is the correct order of steps to configure a Drivetrain in VEXcode IQ?
Select the [Drive] block, Select Help, Drag the [Drive] block into your project
Open the Devices Window, Select ‘Add a Device’, Select ‘2 Motor Drivetrain’, Select the ports on the Brain that your motors are plugged into, Select ‘Done’
Open the File menu, Select ‘Open Examples’, and select a project

Which of the following best describes what the robot will do when this project is run?
The robot will drive forward for 200mm then turn right 90 degrees, four times, to drive in a square.
The robot will drive forward 200mm, then turn right 180, then drive back to its starting position.
The robot will open the ClawMotor 90 degrees, then close it 90 degrees, four times.
The robot will turn left 90 degrees four times, to rotate in a circle.
What is the purpose of configuring a Drivetrain in VEXcode IQ?

Which of the following best describes path planning?
The process of guessing and checking your way to a challenge solution with your robot
Identifying general steps needed to accomplish a task, like ‘drive forward then turn left’
The process of decomposing a project into the smallest possible behaviors that you can then attach code to
A cycle of defining, developing solutions, and optimizing your project or robot for competition
Path planning is __________ than guessing and checking to solve a coding challenge or accomplish a task with your robot.
