Solutions
S1. Ans.(d)
Sol. Glitch is a term used to express temporary malfunctioning of software.
S2. Ans.(b)
Sol. A spreadsheet program is general-purpose software that allows you to do mathematical or financial calculation. An example of a spreadsheet program is MS excel.
S3. Ans.(d)
Sol. Disk drive is a device in computer that is used to insert or remove CD, DVD or Blu-ray disc.
S4. Ans.(c)
Sol. A monitor is an output device that displays the output after processing the instructions provided by the user.
S5. Ans.(d)
Sol. Charles Babbage invented Difference Engine and Analytical Engine. Because of the immense contribution and impact that his inventions had on the history of computing, Babbage is regarded as the father of the modern computer.
S6. Ans.(b)
Sol. Bardeen and Shockley invented transistors, which replaced vacuum tubes in the second generation of computers.
S7. Ans.(e)
Sol. Assembler translates a program written in an assembly language into machine language.
S8. Ans.(a)
Sol. IBM System/360 is a mainframe computer. Mainframes are computers that are particularly used by big firms to store their historical as well as the present data, which is highly valuable for the firm. These types of computers are also used for bulk data processing, where the bulk data may include census, statistical data, ERP and transaction records.
S9. Ans.(a)
Sol. In terms of computer, a system is an integration of different units so as to achieve an objective. These units consist of memory unit, processing unit, output unit, and so on.
S10. Ans.(b)
Sol. Petabyte (PB) is the largest memory among all of the above. 1 PB = 1000000000000000 = 1015 bytes = 1000 terabytes.
S11. Ans.(e)
Sol. CRT stands for cathode ray tube, LED is light emitting diode, TFT is thin film transistor and OLED stands for Organic LED. These are different types of technologies used in computer monitors.
S12. Ans.(a)
Sol. BIOS or Basic Input/Output system is a set of instructions provided to a computer microprocessor at the time of booting.
S13. Ans.(c)
Sol. Priority scheduling is the technique of scheduling a job as per the priority for processing. In this the processor stops the ongoing job processing and provided resources to the job on priority for processing.
S14. Ans.(b)
Sol. Nowadays, in microcomputers, storage subsystems consist of magnetic or optical media. These are modern ways of storing data.
S15. Ans.(b)
Sol. Applications are software or computer programs that are built to execute or allow the execution of special tasks on a computer, such as a music application that enables users to play, learn or even create music.
