Question Discussion & Solution

The correct answer is Pirated Software.

Key Points

• Pirated Software is the unauthorized use, duplication, or sale of copyrighted software.
  • Pirated software is software that has been copied or distributed for free or at a vastly reduced price against the wishes of the creator.
  • The term "piracy" comes from the music industry and specifically the illegal broadcasting of music without paying a royalty.
  • Windows 10 automatically scans your computer for pirated software.

Additional Information

• Cracked software is usually (but not always!) pirated.
• The operative term is ‘crack’, which means that some type of patch or workaround was applied to defeat copy protection.

Option 3 is correct, i.e. p-block.

• Modern Periodic Table:
  • The Modern Periodic Table is classified into the following elements - p-block, s-block, d-block, and f-block.
  • The p-block elements include chalcogens, pnictogens, halogens, inert gases.
    • The 18^th group is known as Inert gas, zero groups, Nonreactive gases.
    • The 17^th group is known as Halogen.
    • The 16^th group is known as Chalcogen.
    • The 15^th group known as Pnictogen.
    • Pnictogen group refers to the choking property of nitrogen gas (as opposed to air, which contains oxygen as well as nitrogen).
    • Nitrogen family elements consist of atoms having 5 electrons in their outer energy level. Two of the electrons are in the s subshell, with 3 unpaired electrons in the ​p subshell.
  • The s-block elements include alkali metals and alkaline earth metals. 
  • The d-block elements include Transition elements.
  • The f-block elements include Inner Transition Elements.

The correct answer is cookie.

Key Points

• A cookie is a small text file (up to 4 KB) created by a website that is stored in the user's computer temporarily for only that session or permanently in storage.
  • Cookies provide a way for the website to recognize you and track your preferences.
  • Cookies are typically used to "maintain the state" of the browser session. For example, users can place items in a shopping cart, switch to another page or another site, and when they return, the site recognizes them and the current state of the cart.
  • Cookies consist of a series of URLs (addresses) for which they are valid. When the web browser or other HTTP application again sends a request to the webserver containing those URLs, it sends it along with the associated cookies.
  • For example, if your user ID and password are stored in a cookie, this saves you from typing the same information over and over again the next time you access that service.
  • Cookies allow the website to customize the pages and create a custom experience for each individual.

Additional Information

• Malware
  • Malware is malicious software intended to cause damage to a computer or network.
  • Types of malware include viruses, worms, spyware, and ransomware.
  • Malware can find its way onto computers when a user clicks a link or email attachment that installs malicious software.
• Bug
  • A bug computer definition is referred to as a failure or a flaw in the software program.
  • A Bug produces an incorrect or undesired result that deviates from the expected result or behaviour.
  • When you add two numbers using this app and if it shows you a wrong total, then we can say this app has a bug.
• Cache
  • The cache is the temporary memory officially termed "CPU cache memory".
  • "Cache" is also used to refer to any temporary collection of data, either in hardware or software.

The correct answer is Copper and Tin.
Key Points

• Bronze
  • Bronze is an alloy traditionally composed of copper and tin.
  • Bronze is of exceptional historical interest and still finds wide applications.
  • It was made before 3000 BC, though its use in artifacts did not become common until much later.
  • The proportions of copper and tin varied widely (from 67 to 95 percent copper in surviving artifacts), but, by the Middle Ages in Europe, certain proportions were known to yield specific properties.
  • An alloy described in an 11th-century Greek manuscript in the library of St. Mark’s, Venice, cites a proportion of one pound copper to two ounces of tin (8 to 1), approximately that used for bronze gunmetal in later times.
  • Some modern bronzes contain no tin at all, substituting other metals such as aluminum, manganese, and even zinc.

Additional Information

• Copper and Silver
  • The best-known copper-silver alloy is sterling, which is 92.5 percent silver and 7.5 percent copper.
  • In England sterling, silver is traditionally identified by the hallmark of a lion passant.
  • Coin silver is an alloy of 90 percent silver and 10 percent copper.
  • For jewelry and ornaments, 85–90 percent silver (and the balance copper) is frequently used.
  • Dental alloys of 60–70 percent silver, 18–25 percent tin, 2–14 percent copper, and 0.5–2 percent zinc are amalgamated with varying quantities of mercury to form the filling materials for cavities in teeth.
• Copper and zinc
  • Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, of historical and enduring importance because of its hardness and workability.
  • The earliest brass was called calamine brass, which dates to Neolithic times.
  • It was probably made by the reduction of mixtures of zinc ores and copper ores.
  • In ancient documents, such as the Bible, the term brass is often used to denote bronze, the alloy of copper with tin.
• Copper and Lead
  • Leaded bronzes contain from 4 to 25 percent lead plus additions of copper and tin, and some copper-lead bearing alloys contain up to 40 percent lead.
  • All these bearing alloys are sufficiently soft so that lubrication failure does not result in damage to the bearing.
  • Lead-based bearing alloys are also known as lead-based babbitt metals or white metals.
  • These are usually antimonial lead with widely variable additions of tin or copper (or both) and arsenic to increase strength.
  • One such alloy is commonly used for railroad-car journal bearings, contains 86 percent lead, 9 percent antimony, and 5 percent tin.
  • Many alloys of lead and alkaline-earth metals, such as calcium and sodium, also are widely used as bearing materials.
