1.  What is Robotics?
          Ans.  Robotics is a branch of technology that deals with designing, constructing, and operating robots to
              perform various tasks.

          2.  What is a robot?
          Ans.  A robot is a machine designed to perform tasks autonomously or semi-autonomously, often mimicking
              human actions.
          3.  Why is ethics important in robotics?
          Ans.  Ethics in robotics ensures the responsible and safe use of robots, considering their impact on society and
              humans.
          4.  What are the laws of robotics?
          Ans.  The laws of robotics are a set of guidelines proposed by Isaac Asimov to ensure robots behave ethically
              and safely.

          5.  Define Artificial Intelligence (AI).
          Ans.  Artificial Intelligence is the simulation of human intelligence in machines, enabling them to perform tasks
              that typically require human intelligence, such as problem-solving and decision-making.

          6.  Give an example of a simple robot.
          Ans.  A robotic vacuum cleaner is an example of a simple robot that can autonomously clean floors.

          7.  What is the primary goal of robotics and AI?
          Ans.  The primary goal is to create machines that can perform tasks efficiently, accurately, and autonomously,
              mimicking human capabilities.

          8.  Give an example of a wheeled robot.
          Ans.  A simple example of a wheeled robot is a toy car controlled by a remote.
          9.  What are the building blocks of robots?
          Ans.  The building blocks of robots include sensors, actuators, control systems, and power sources.

          10.  How does a robot's controller work?
          Ans.  The controller is the brain of the robot, processing information from sensors and sending commands to
              actuators for appropriate actions.
          11.  How can robots be helpful in hazardous environments?
          Ans.  Robots can perform tasks in dangerous environments like nuclear reactors, minimizing the risk to human
              workers.

          12.  What is a cobot?
          Ans.  A cobot, short for collaborative robot, is a type of robot designed to work harmoniously with human
              workers in shared workspaces.
          13.  What is the primary goal of cobots?
          Ans.  The primary goal of cobots is to enhance human productivity and safety by assisting and collaborating
              with humans in various tasks.
