- Heat, q is a path function. a) True b) Falsearrow_forwardA manipulator’s end-effector position is calculated as follows:x = q0 cos q1 + l2 cos(q1 + q2),y = q0 sin q1 + l2 sin(q1 + q2),where q0,1,2 represent joint displacements and l2 is a constant positive parameter.Which of the following describes this manipulator:1) This is a robot-manipulator with 3 revolute joints.2) This is a robot-manipulator with 2 revolute and 1 prismatic joints.3) This is a robot-manipulator with 1 prismatic and 3 revolute joints.4) This is a robot-manipulator with 2 revolute joints. A robot’s end-effector’s tool position is defined asx = L1 cos(q1) + q3 sin(q1 + q2)where L1 = const, q1 = q1(t), q2 = q2(t) and q3 = q3(t) with t defining time.
