Question 25

An automated guided vehicle (AGV) carrying heavy components in a factory is travelling at its cruise speed when its laser sensors detect a sudden obstruction. The AGV's control system initiates an emergency brake sequence to bring the AGV to a complete stop.

Identify three distinct physical factors, relating to either the AGV's mechanical state, its cargo, or the warehouse environment, that would increase the total distance travelled by the AGV from the moment the obstruction is first detected to when it comes to a complete standstill.
