Solutions

S1. Ans. (b)
Sol. Optical Character Recognition, or OCR, is a technology that enables you to convert different types of documents, such as scanned paper documents, PDF files or images captured by a digital camera into editable and searchable data.

S2. Ans. (b)
Sol. Mouse, Keyboard, Scanner all are Input Devices.

S3. Ans. (c)
Sol. An embedded system is a computer system with a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electrical system, often with real-time computing constraints. It is embedded as part of a complete device often including hardware and mechanical parts. Embedded systems control many devices in common use today.

S4. Ans. (c)
Sol. Most modern semiconductor memory devices are implemented allowing random access

S5. Ans.(b)
Sol. A folder is a virtual location where programs, files, and other folders can be located.

S6. Ans. (a)
Sol. cascade and tile are two ways to arrange multiple windows on the desktop.

S7. Ans. (a)
Sol. Dimmed command is a command is not available for selection until certain other conditions are met.

S8. Ans. (a)
Sol. The terms "online" and "offline" have specific meanings in regard to computer technology in which "online" indicates a state of connectivity, while "offline" indicates a disconnected state.

S9. Ans. (d)
Sol. Video Graphics Array (VGA) refers specifically to the display hardware first introduced with the IBM PS/2 line of computers, but through its widespread adoption has also come to mean either an analog computer display standard, the 15-pin D-sub miniature VGA connector or the 640x480 resolution itself.

S10. Ans. (c)
Sol. Visual FoxPro is a data-centric, object-oriented, procedural, programming language produced by Microsoft. It is derived from FoxPro (originally known as FoxBASE) which was developed by Fox Software beginning in 1984.

S11. Ans.(b)
Sol. ‘maximize’ a window means expanding it to fit the desktop.

S12. Ans.(e)
Sol. Pull down menu shows further sub-choices.

S13. Ans. (c)
Sol. A repeater operates at the physical layer. Its job is to regenerate the signal over the same network before the signal becomes too weak or corrupted so as to extend the length to which the signal can be transmitted over the same network. A hub is basically a multiport repeater. A hub connects multiple wires coming from different branches, for example, the connector in star topology which connects different stations.

S14. Ans. (e)
Sol. All of the given options are router functions.

S15. Ans. (c)
Sol. MAN is abbreviation for Metropolitan Area Network and is a computer network that usually spans a city or a large campus.
