A) 212 degrees B) 32 degreees
C) -40 degreees D) 0 degreees
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) -40 degreees

Explanation:

We want the temperature when F=C.

We know that, F = C x 95 + 32

So substituting C For F, we have C = -40o

Therefore,  C = -40. 

Thus when C = -40, we have C = F

Q:

What are short, long and medium-term scheduling?

Answer

Long term scheduler determines which programs are admitted to the system for processing. It controls the degree of multiprogramming. Once admitted, a job becomes a process.


Medium term scheduling is part of the swapping function. This relates to processes that are in a blocked or suspended state. They are swapped out of real-memory until they are ready to execute. The swapping-in decision is based on memory-management criteria.


Short term scheduler, also know as a dispatcher executes most frequently, and makes the finest-grained decision of which process should execute next. This scheduler is invoked whenever an event occurs. It may lead to interruption of one process by preemption.
