Question

question 12 (1 point)
electrical power is very important. as a battery becomes run down a robot will not have the power necessary to accomplish what it was designed for.
if the torque demands are too great, the motors will draw too much current, which will trigger several safety components to shut the robot down.
true
false

Explanation:

When a battery runs down, its voltage drops. For a motor, \(V = IR + \text{back - emf}\). If torque demands are high (which requires more mechanical power, and since \(P = \tau\omega\) for rotational motion, more torque \(\tau\) at a given angular velocity \(\omega\) implies more power). With lower battery voltage \(V\), to meet the power requirements ( \(P = IV\) for electrical power input to the motor), the current \(I\) will increase. High current can trigger safety - related shutdowns in the robot driver (e.g., over - current protection circuits).

Answer:

True
