Speed
An increase in speed will result in ____________________.
What is less torque?
This quantity refers to a "twisting force" that tends to cause an object to rotate.
What is torque?
To determine the speed or torque of a gear system.
What is gear ratio?
Transmits power and motion to the rest of the system.
Input or Driver
Diagram used to show the flow of action in a program.
What is a flowchart?
Output speed of a gear train with a gear ratio of 1 : 1.
What is stays the same (constant)?
The relationship of speed to torque.
What is inverse(ly)?
This part is required to reduce grinding and friction when using a drive shaft and other support structures.
What is a bearing?
A toothed wheel that works with others to alter the relation between the speed of an engine and the speed of the driven parts.
What is a gear?
The process of locating trouble and making repairs in machinery and technical equipment.
What is troubleshooting?
The driving gear has 36 teeth. The driven gear has 24 teeth. The driven gear will turn faster, slower, or at the same speed as the driving gear.
What is faster?
The driving gear has 60 teeth. The driven gear has 36 teeth. The torque of the driven gear will increase, decrease, or stay the same compared to the driving gear.
Meshed gears always turn in the same direction.
What is false?
Motion and power are transmitted by the other.
Output or Driven
A set of steps in a particular order to complete a task.
What is an algorithm?
The driving gear has 36 teeth. The driven gear has 60 teeth. The driven gear will either turn faster, slower, or at the same speed as the driving gear.
What is slower?
What is decreased?
A gear between the driver and the driven gear used to change rotational direction.
What is the idler gear?
The part of a machine which contains two or more peices arranged so that the motion of one compels the motion of the others.
What is a mechanism?
Sophia and Jin are attempting to create an algorithm to make their robot do a shuffle with the following requirements:
1. It must last more than 20 seconds.
2. It must go both forward and backwards.
3. The algorithm begins when BumperA is pressed.
The role of BumperA.
What is event handler?
Output speed of a gear train where the number of teeth of the driven gear is 60 and the number of teeth of the driving gear is 48.
What is decreased?
In a gear train with a 24:6 ratio (where the output turns 1 time for every 4 turns of the motor), the output speed is 4 times slower, but the torque is increased by this many times.
What is four?
Type of motion in a gear train.
What is rotary motion?
The ability to do work
What is energy?
A coding software program is used to create code and is downloaded to the robot, so that the robot moves based on the code.
What is autonomous?
An autonomous robot must move on its own according to the instructions it receives from the coding software.
