Q76. During a design review, an engineer must reason about forward kinematics rather than rely on a memorized label. Which statement is defensible?

A. computing motor temperature from current B. finding forces from mass alone C. choosing a gripper from payload only D. Computing end-effector pose from known joint variables and robot geometry

Check Answer

Correct Answer: D   |   Marks: 1

Explanation: Forward kinematics maps joint coordinates to Cartesian position and orientation using the robot's geometric model.

Check Answer

Correct Answer: C   |   Marks: 1

Explanation: Inverse kinematics solves the reverse mapping and can have zero, one, multiple or infinitely many solutions depending on geometry and target.
