Read the following questions carefully and choose the correct option.
9. It studies the movement of mechanisms in space and the magnitude used is
displacement. In robots, it allows us to know the exact location of the actuators.

A) Joints B) Kinematics C) Degrees of (D) Links

freedom

10. Mechanical structures that allow the movement of different parts of the robot.

A) Joints B) Kinematics C) Degrees of (D) Links

freedom

11. It allows angular motion, usually produced by servo motors. Its motion is measured
in degrees or radians.
 A) Joints B) Linear joint C) Degrees of D) Rotational
freedom Joint

12. It allows displacement in only one direction. The displacement is measured in units of
distance.

A) Joints B) Linear joint C) Degrees of D) Rotational Joint

freedom

13. Rigid structures that give amplitude to the movements of the joints.

A) Joints B) Kinematics C) Degrees of (D) Link

freedom

14. It is the number of independent movements the robot can have, and in most cases, it is
equal to the number of joints that it has.

A) Joints B) Linear joint C) Degrees of D) Rotational

freedom Joint

15. It is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical, causing a rotational
movement due to the action of a magnetic field.
A) Delay B) DC Motor C) Servo motor D) ON

16. It refers to the speed with which the motor shaft rotates; It is given in revolutions per
minute (rpm).

21. They are execution times assigned to a specific action and are widely used when
programming.

A) Operating B) Torque C) Speed Control D) Waiting times or

Voltage delays

22. Its function is to make the processor wait a defined time and at the same time prolong
the execution time of the block that is being executed before executing the next instruction.
It has a time range from 0.1 to 25 seconds.
