Welcome! This activity will teach how to measure the acceleration on the micro:bit in the "z" direction. Let's get started!
|
||||
|
||||
We want to display the acceleration forever. In order to do so, we need a `forever` loop.
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
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`.
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
basic.forever(() => {
|
||||
let az = input.acceleration(Dimension.Z)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Show the value of `az` on the screen.
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
basic.forever(() => {
|
||||
let az = input.acceleration(Dimension.Z)
|
||||
basic.showNumber(az)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||

# zoomer blocks challenges
|
||||
|
||||
Coding challenges for zoomer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Before we get started
|
||||
|
||||
Complete the following [activity](/lessons/zoomer/activity) and your finished code should look like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
basic.forever(() => {
|
||||
let az = input.acceleration(Dimension.Z)
|
||||
basic.showNumber(az)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
### Challenge 1
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
We'll modify the code to display the `x` acceleration if the `A` button is pressed. For that, we need to store `acceleration (x)` in a new variable `ax` and use a `button (A) is pressed` to detect if the button is pressed.
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
basic.forever(() => {
|
||||
let az = input.acceleration(Dimension.Z)
|
||||
let ax = input.acceleration(Dimension.X)
|
||||
if (input.buttonIsPressed(Button.A)) {
|
||||
basic.showNumber(ax)
|
||||
}
|
||||
basic.showNumber(az)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
* 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 `button (B) is pressed`.

# zoomer quiz answers
|
||||
|
||||
Measure the acceleration on the micro:bit in the "z" direction.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the answer key for the [zoomer quiz](/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/>
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
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/>
|
||||
|
||||
```blocks
|
||||
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..
