Q41
______ is concerned with realizing a software design using an object-oriented programming language.
A Object-Oriented Methods
B Object-Oriented Methods
C Object-Oriented Design
D Object-Oriented Programming
Explanation
Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) is concerned with implementing software using an object-oriented programming language. It uses concepts such as classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation, and abstraction.
Q42
What is the minimum number of wires needed to send data over a serial communication link?
A 1
B 2
C 3
D 4
Explanation
Serial communication transmits data one bit at a time over a communication path. In its simplest form, a single wire can carry the data signal, with a common ground or reference assumed.
Q43
Which of the following is an example of a bounded transmission medium?
A Coaxial cable
B Waveguide
C Fiber-optic cable
D All of the above
Explanation
Bounded or guided transmission media provide a physical path for signals. Coaxial cables, waveguides, and fiber-optic cables all guide signals through a defined physical medium.
Q44
A coaxial cable consists of conductors that have:
A A common axis
B Equal resistance
C The same diameter
D None of the above
Explanation
The term coaxial means that the conductors share the same axis. A coaxial cable typically has a central conductor surrounded by insulation, a metallic shield, and an outer protective jacket.
Q45
The area covered by a satellite radio beam is called its:
A Beam width
B Circular polarization
C Footprint
D Identity
Explanation
A satellite's footprint is the geographical area on Earth's surface where its transmitted signal can be received effectively.
Q46
The amount of uncertainty associated with a system or symbol is called:
A Bandwidth
B Entropy
C Loss
D Quantum
Explanation
In information theory, entropy measures the uncertainty or randomness associated with information. Higher entropy generally means greater uncertainty about the outcome of a symbol or event.
Q47
Buffering is the process of:
A Temporarily storing data to accommodate variations in device speeds
B Reducing cross-talk
C Storing data within the transmission medium until the receiver is ready
D Reducing routing overhead
Explanation
Buffering temporarily stores data in a memory area called a buffer. It helps manage differences in the speeds at which devices produce and process data.
