Q:

Is DRAM Volatile or Nonvolatile?

Answer

DRAM is a Volatile random-access memory (VRAM).


 


Volatile random-access memory (VRAM) is random-access memory that retains its information when power is turned on.


Examples of volatile memory are primary storage (typically dynamic RAM, DRAM), and fast CPU cache memory (typically static RAM, SRAM, which is fast but energy-consuming and offer lower memory capacity per area unit than DRAM).


Non-volatile random-access memory (NVRAM) is random-access memory that retains its information when power is turned off.

Examples of non-volatile memory are flash memory (used as secondary memory) and ROM, PROM, EPROM and EEPROM memory (used for storing firmware such as BIOS).

Q:

RADAR is used for

A) detecting and locating the position of objects such as Aeroplanes B) locating submerged submarines
C) locating geostationary satellites D) receiving a signals in a radio receiver
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) detecting and locating the position of objects such as Aeroplanes

Explanation:

RADAR - RAdio Detection And Ranging.

A radar system consists of a transmitter producing electromagnetic waves in the radio or microwaves domain, a transmitting antenna, a receiving antenna (often the same antenna is used for transmitting and receiving) and a receiver and processor to determine properties of the objects. 

 

Radar is an object-detection system that uses radio waves to determine the range, angle, or velocity of objects. It can be used to detect aircraft, ships, spacecraft, guided missiles, motor vehicles, weather formations, and terrain.

 

Radio waves from the transmitter reflect off the object and return to the receiver, giving information about the object's location and speed.

Q:

Cloud computing uses Server virtualization.

A) TRUE B) FALSE
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) TRUE

Explanation:

Cloud computing :: 


Cloud computing is an information technology (IT) paradigm that enables ubiquitous access to shared pools of configurable system resources and higher-level services that can be rapidly provisioned with minimal management effort, often over the Internet.


 


Server virtualization :


Server virtualization is a virtualization technique that involves partitioning a physical server into a number of small, virtual servers with the help of virtualization software. In server virtualization, each virtual server runs multiple operating system instances at the same time.

Server virtualization is more for a good reason. It offers the potential to dramatically save space and improve server efficiency. Vendors are in fierce competition to offer the most advanced tools that they hope will earn them the virtualization crown.


 


Hence, the given statement that 'Cloud computing uses Server virtualization.' is TRUE.

Q:

What is a stub network?

A) A network with only one entry and no exit point. B) A network that has only one entry and exit point.
C) A network with more than one exit point. D) A network with more than one exit and entry point.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) A network that has only one entry and exit point.

Explanation:

A stub network has only one default path to non-local hosts and no outside network knowledge. Non-local stub network traffic uses a single logical path when traveling in and out of the network.

 

Stub networks are essentially local area networks (LAN) that either do not connect to the outside and relay data packets internally or are dead-end LANs that know of only one network exit. Stub networks may have multiple connections but use one path to single points of destination.

 

Hence, a stub network is a network that has only one entry and exit point.
