Which among following first generation of computers had ?
- A.
Vaccum Tubes and Magnetic Drum
- B.
Integrated Circuits
- C.
Magnetic Tape and Transistors
- D.
All of above
Correct Answer
A. Vaccum Tubes and Magnetic DrumExplanation
The first generation of computers had vacuum tubes and magnetic drums as their primary components. Vacuum tubes were used as electronic switches to perform calculations, while magnetic drums were used for data storage. These computers were large, expensive, and consumed a lot of power. They were also prone to frequent breakdowns and required constant maintenance. However, they laid the foundation for future advancements in computer technology.Rate this question:

Where is RAM located ?
- A.
Expansion Board
- B.
External Drive
- C.
Mother Board
- D.
All of above
Correct Answer
C. Mother BoardExplanation
RAM (Random Access Memory) is a type of computer memory that is used to store data that is being actively used by the computer. It is a volatile memory, meaning it requires a constant supply of power to retain the stored data. RAM is typically located on the motherboard of a computer. It is directly connected to the CPU (Central Processing Unit) and allows for fast access to data, which helps in improving the overall performance of the computer. Therefore, the correct answer is Mother Board.Rate this question:

If a computer has more than one processor then it is known as ?
- A.
Uniprocess
- B.
Multiprocessor
- C.
Multithreaded
- D.
Multiprogramming
Correct Answer
B. MultiprocessorExplanation
A computer with more than one processor is known as a multiprocessor. This means that the computer has multiple CPUs (central processing units) working together to execute tasks and process data simultaneously. Having multiple processors allows for increased performance and the ability to handle multiple tasks or processes simultaneously.Rate this question:

If a computer provides database services to other, then it will be known as ?
- A.
Web server
- B.
Application server
- C.
Database server
- D.
FTP server FTP server FTP server FTP server
Correct Answer
C. Database serverExplanation
A computer that provides database services to others is known as a database server. This type of server is specifically designed to store, manage, and retrieve data from a database. It allows multiple users to access and manipulate the data simultaneously, ensuring data integrity and security. It typically runs database management software and provides functionalities like data storage, data backup, data recovery, and query processing.Rate this question:

- A.
Uniform Resource Locator
- B.
Uniform Resource Link
- C.
Uniform Registered Link
- D.
Unified Resource Link
Correct Answer
A. Uniform Resource LocatorExplanation
A URL is the address used to access resources on the internet. It specifies the protocol to be used, such as HTTP or FTP, followed by the domain name or IP address of the server, and the specific path to the resource. The correct answer, Uniform Resource Locator, accurately describes the full form of URL. It is a standardized way of identifying and locating resources on the web.Rate this question:

In which of the following form, data is stored in computer ?
- A.
Decimal
- B.
Binary
- C.
HexaDecimal
- D.
Octal
Correct Answer
B. BinaryExplanation
Data is stored in computers in binary form. Binary is a base-2 number system that uses only two digits, 0 and 1, to represent all possible values. In computers, data is stored and processed using electronic circuits that can represent these two states, on and off, which correspond to 0 and 1 in binary. This binary representation allows computers to perform calculations and manipulate data efficiently using logic gates and binary arithmetic operations. Other number systems like decimal, hexadecimal, and octal are often used for human-readable representation or for specific purposes, but the underlying storage and processing in computers is based on binary.Rate this question:

- A.
High-level programming language
- B.
Medium-level programming language
- C.
Low-level programming language
- D.
Machine language
Correct Answer
C. Low-level programming languageExplanation
Assembly Language is considered a low-level programming language because it is closer to machine language than high-level languages. It uses mnemonic codes and symbols to represent the machine instructions, making it easier for programmers to understand and write code that directly interacts with the hardware. However, it is still more human-readable and easier to work with than machine language, which consists of binary instructions.Rate this question:
