Practice MCQ

Computer Science

______ provides a path to transfer data between CPU and memory.

A
Control Bus
B
Address Bus
C
Data Bus
D
None of these
Explanation and memory cue

The Data Bus is responsible for transferring actual data between the CPU and memory. The Address Bus carries the address of the memory location, and the Control Bus carries control signals, but data transfer specifically occurs over the Data Bus.

Laser Printer Metrics

easy
Computer Science

How is the printing speed of a laser printer measured?

A
Characters per second
B
Pages per minute
C
Lines per minute
D
Words per minute
Explanation and memory cue

Laser printer speed is typically measured in pages per minute (ppm), indicating how many pages the printer can produce in one minute. This is the standard metric used to compare printer speeds.

Types Of Buses

easy
Computer Science

Which of the following is not a type of bus in a computer?

A
Data bus
B
Control bus
C
Power bus
D
Address Bus
Explanation and memory cue

In computer architecture, common types of buses include the data bus, control bus, and address bus, which are used for data transfer, control signals, and addressing memory locations respectively. A power bus is not considered a type of bus for data or control signals within the computer system.

Internal Data Transfer

easy
Computer Science

Which bus is used to transfer data internally in a computer?

A
Data bus
B
Control bus
C
Address bus
D
System bus
Explanation and memory cue

The data bus is specifically used to transfer data internally within a computer between components. The address bus carries memory addresses, and the control bus carries control signals, so they do not transfer data itself.

Bus Functions

easy
Computer Science

Which bus carries the actual data being transferred between components?

A
Address Bus
B
Control Bus
C
Data Bus
D
Serial Bus
Explanation and memory cue

The Data Bus is responsible for carrying the actual data being transferred between components in a computer system. The Address Bus carries address information, the Control Bus carries control signals, and Serial Bus refers to a type of data transmission, not a specific bus carrying data between components.

Computer Science

USB can transfer data over a ____.

A
Long Distance Internet
B
Short Distance
C
None of these
D
Wireless connection
Explanation and memory cue

USB (Universal Serial Bus) is designed for short-distance data transfer, typically within a few meters, such as connecting peripherals to a computer. It is not suitable for long-distance or internet data transfer.

Virtual Printing Software

medium
Computer Science

198 ____ is a computer software whose user interface and API resemble that of a printer driver.

A
Virtual Printer
B
Plotter
C
Scanner
D
None of these
Explanation and memory cue

A virtual printer is a type of computer software that mimics the interface and API of a physical printer driver, allowing applications to 'print' to a file or another output format instead of paper. This matches the description given, making option A correct.

What does a bus in computer architecture refer to?

A
A central processing unit
B
A pathway for transmitting data, addresses, and control signals
C
A type of storage device
D
A type of memory
Explanation and memory cue

In computer architecture, a bus is a communication system that transfers data, addresses, and control signals between components of a computer. It is not a CPU, storage device, or memory type.

Line Printer Metrics

easy
Computer Science

What is the printing speed of a line printer usually measured in?

A
Pages per minute
B
Characters per second
C
Lines per minute
D
Pixels per second
Explanation and memory cue

The printing speed of a line printer is typically measured in lines per minute because it prints an entire line of text at once, making this the most relevant metric for its speed.
