Scratch block coding
This block starts the program when the green flag is clicked.
“When green flag clicked” block
This VEX part connects beams and plates together.
pegs
This thing carries electrical current from one component to another.
Wire/conductor
This unit measures electrical resistance.
Ohm
This component lights up when electricity flows through it.
LED/LIGHT component
This Scratch block repeats code a certain number of times.
Repeat block
Gears are used to change this.
Speed and torque
Red wires are commonly used for this electrical direction.
Positive (+)
If voltage increases while resistance stays the same, current does what?
It increases
This Snap Circuits component makes sound.
Speaker/Buzzer Module
This type of block lets your program make decisions.
If/else block
A circuit with a break in the path is called this.
An open curcuit
A circuit has 12 V and 4 ohms. What is the current?
3A
This loop runs forever unless the program is stopped.
Forever block
Triangles are commonly used in robot structures because they are…
The strongest shape/strong and rigid
Connecting a battery directly from positive to negative without a resistor or a component creates this.
Short curcuit
A circuit has 20 V and 5 A. Find the resistance.
4 Ohms
This Scratch block sends a message to start another script.
Broadcast Block.
In a series circuit, if one bulb burns out, what happens to the others?
They all go out
A resistor is 10 Ohms with 2 A flowing through it. Find the voltage.
20V
