Question

Arrange the steps in the flow of power for a robotic arm, in the correct order:
(A) Controller sends signals to actuators
(B) Motion is transmitted to joints via gears or linkages.
(C) Input power source supplies energy
(D) Actuators convert electric energy into mechanical motion
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. (A), (B), (C), (D)
• B. (A), (C), (B), (D)
• C. (C), (A), (D), (B)
• D. (C), (B), (D), (A)

Hint:

In robotic systems, power flows from the energy source to the controller, actuators, and finally to the mechanical components like joints.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understanding Robotic Arm Power Flow
- Initial power (C) is supplied from the power source.
- Controller (A) signals actuators to begin movement.
- Actuators (D) transform electrical energy to mechanical motion.
- Motion transfers to joints (B) through gears/linkages.
Step 2: Summary The correct order is: (C), (A), (D), (B). Final Answer: \[ \boxed{(C), (A), (D), (B)}\]
