Q. The small extremely fast, RAM’s are called as
  • (A) cache
  • (B) heaps
  • (C) accumulators
  • (D) stacks
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (A) cache

Explanation: these small and fast memory devices are compared to ram because they optimize the performance of the system and they only keep files which are required by the current process in them

Q. The ALU makes use of to store the intermediate results.
  • (A) accumulators
  • (B) registers
  • (C) heap
  • (D) stack
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (A) accumulators

Explanation: the alu is the computational center of the cpu. it performs all mathematical and logical operations. in order to perform better, it uses some internal memory spaces to store immediate results.

Q. The Input devices can send information to the processor.
  • (A) when the sin status flag is set
  • (B) when the data arrives regardless of the sin flag
  • (C) neither of the cases
  • (D) either of the cases
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (A) when the sin status flag is set

Explanation: the input devices use buffers to store the data received and when the buffer has some data it sends it to the processor.
