Translations:The falling tower/16/en
From cod3v
- Consider why the ancient towers are round?
- Have two tables, one for training (without the tower or any markings), and the other with tower and marks. The pupils will learn estimating.
- If the distance is larger, the aiming of the robot will be more difficult. Move the starting line farther away from the tower.
- Put the tower at the border of the table, so that if the robot runs too far, it will fall down. Usually the robot will not break, even if it drops on a floor from a table, but you may put a pillow there under.
- The green steering block can be adjusted to move according to the time, also. Thus it is possible to estimate seconds, also. Estimate how far the robot will drive in a (eg) 5 seconds.
- Observe the movement of the tire, and check how far the robot drives during one lap.
- Try different tires if you have some.
