# zoomer activity
measure the acceleration on the BBC micro:bit in the "z" direction. #microbit #docs
### ~avatar avatar
### @video td/videos/zoomer-0
Welcome! This tutorial will teach how to measure the acceleration on the micro:bit in the "z" direction. Let's get started!
### ~
To create a new script, go to the [Create Code](/microbit/create-code) page and tap *New Project* under **Touch Develop**.
We want to display the acceleration forever. In order to do so, we need a `basic->forever` loop.
```
basic.forever(() => {
})
```
Let's measure the acceleration and then store in it a variable `az`. The acceleration is measured in **milli-gravities**, so a value of `-1000` is equivalent to `-1g` or `-9.81m/s^2`.
```
basic.forever(() => {
let az = input.acceleration("z")
})
```
Show the value of `az` on the screen.
```
basic.forever(() => {
let az_ = input.acceleration("z")
basic.showNumber(az_, 150)
})
```

# zoomer challenges
Coding challenges for the zoomer tutorial.#acceleration #docs #input
## Before we get started
Complete the following [guided tutorial](/microbit/lessons/zoomer/tutorial) and your finished code should look like this:
```
basic.forever(() => {
let az = input.acceleration("z")
basic.showNumber(az, 150)
})
```
### Challenge 1
### @video td/videos/zoomer-2
We'll modify the code to display the `x` acceleration if the `A` button is pressed. For that, we need to store `input->acceleration(x)` in a new variable `ax` and use a `input->button is pressed(A)` to detect if the button is pressed.
```
basic.forever(() => {
let az1 = input.acceleration("z")
let ax = input.acceleration("x")
if (input.buttonIsPressed("A")) {
basic.showNumber(ax, 150) // ***
} else {
basic.showNumber(az1, 150) // ***
}
})
```
* Run the code to see if it works as expected.
### Challenge 2
Display the `y` acceleration when `B` is pressed by adding another `if` statement using `input->button is pressed(B)`.

# zoomer quiz answers
Measure the acceleration on the micro:bit in the "z" direction #LED #number #math #acceleration #docs
This is the answer key for the [zoomer quiz](/microbit/lessons/zoomer/quiz).
## 1. What is 'acceleration'?
Acceleration is amount of force being applied to the BBC micro:bit in one of three specified directions.
## 2. Consider the following directions
Write the line of code to measure the acceleration and then store in it a variable.
<br/>
```
let accX_ = input.acceleration("x")
```
Note: acceleration does not have be measured in the "x" direction. It can also be in the "y" or "z" direction.
## 3. Consider the following directions
After storing the acceleration in a variable, write the code to show acceleration on the BBC micro:bit as a number
<br/>
```
let accX = input.acceleration("x")
basic.showNumber(accX_, 150)
```
Note: make sure the same variable name ("acc x" in this case) is the same in both lines of code..
