Disk access is way slower than memory access. Caching is a technique to improve the disk access time.  Block cache is a caching technique which reduces disk accesses time.  Here a portion of disk is bought to cache for reading and a modified blocks are first changed in cache but reflected in the disk at one go.  On the other hand with write through caching each modified block is written to cache and at the same time it is written to the disk.  Write- through caching requires more disk I/O so they can have a negative effect on the performance.

Answer:

block cache

Explanation:

    An integrated cache is a layer of memory that automatically caches frequently accessed data through the source database.

    Block cache is used to store blocks read from disks. This means that a small buffer cache will cause Oracle to cache data blocks following the LAST RECENTLY USED list, and depending on how often this happens, can lead to a drop in performance.

    There is no magic to sizing the block cache, what you usually do is estimate an initial size and monitor the hit, if it is not optimal, you will need to lengthen and repeat the monitoring cycle.

What is the LER for a rectangular wing with a span of 0.225m and a chord of 0.045m
ch4aika [34]

Calculate LER for a rectangular wing with a span of 0.225m and a chord of 0.045m. The weight of the glider is 0.0500 Newtons. (Note: the wing span is the width of the wing and is measured from wing tip to wing tip, or perpendicular to the fuselage. The wing chord is the length of the wing measured parallel or along the length of the fuselage.)

Answer:

Area of rectangular wing = span × chord = 0.225×0.045= 0.010125m2

LER = Area/weight = 0.010125/0.0500 = 0.2025

igor_vitrenko [27]
I'd suggest he uses LOOKUP Function.

You can use the LOOKUP function when you need to look in a single column or row and find a value from the same position in a corresponding column or row. We have a much improved VLOOKUP that can also be used to search one row or column or multiple rows and columns.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Following are the code to this question:

#include<iostream>//import header file

using namespace std;

int main()//defining main method

{

int ar[7];//defining 1_D array that stores value      

int i,x=0,l1=1,j; //defining integer variable

for(i=0;i<7;i++)//defining for loop for input value from user ends  

{

cout<<"Enter a Number: ";//print message

cin>>ar[i];//input value in array

if(l1<=2 && i>0)//using if block that checks the array values  

{

x++;//increment the value of x by 1  

}

if(l1>2 && i>0)//using if block that checks the array values  

{

l1=l1-2;//using l1 variable that decrases the l1 value by 2  

}

j=i-x;//using j variable that holds the index of the root of the subtree

if(i>0 && ar[j]>ar[i])// use if block that checks heap condition  

{

l1++; //increment the value of l1 variable

}

if(i>0 && ar[j]<ar[i])// using the if block that violate the heap rule  

{

cout<<ar[i]<<" "<<"Violate the heap";//print message with value

break;//using break keyword  

}

}

return 0;

}

Output:

1)

Enter a Number: -15

Enter a Number: -5

-5 Violate the heap

2)

Enter a Number: 45

Enter a Number: 0

Enter a Number: 55

55 Violate the heap

Explanation:

  • In the above-given C++ language code, an array "ar" and other integer variables " i,x,l1, j" is declared, in which "i" variable used in the loop for input values from the user end.
  • In this loop two, if block is defined, that checks the array values and in the first, if the block it will increment the value of x, and in the second if the block, it will decrease the l1 value by 2.
  • In the next step, j variable is used that is the index of the root of the subtree. In the next step, another if block is used, that checks heap condition, that increment the value of l1 variable. In the, if block it violate the heap rule and print its values.
