Numismatics is the study or collection of currency, including coins, tokens, paper money, and related objects.

Thermal energy is caused by the motion of atoms and molecules in the matter.

1. Thermal energy is an example of kinetic energy, as it is due to the motion of particles, with motion being the key.
2. Thermal energy results in an object or a system having a temperature that can be measured.
3. Thermal energy can be transferred from one object or system to another in the form of heat.

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.

Yep! It's your NAME that belongs to you but is used more by others than you.

The process by which bacteria convert nitrogen gas (N2) into ammonia (NH3) is called Nitrogen Fixation.

The conversion of nitrogen from one form to another in the nitrogen cycle is carried out primarily by Nitrogen Fixing Bacteria such as Azotobacter.

A metalloid is an element with properties between metals and non metals or the mix of both.

The six metalloids are arsenic, silicon, germanium, boron, antimony and tellurium.

Hence, silicon is the only metalloid in the given list.

MAU is Multistation Access Unit

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.
