Answer:

the software that manages and controls the activities and resources of the computer is OS

Explanation:

the software that manages and controls the activities and resources of the computer is OS

because here we know that CPU is hardware

and ALU is a digital circuit that is use to perform arithmetic and logic operations

and

GUI or Graphical User Interface controls the graphical interface of the applications

so here correct option is OS that is the software that manages and controls the activities and resources of the computer

satela [25.4K]

Answer: To be useful for most household applications, DC voltage is passed through a step-down transformer.

Explanation: Voltage coming through AC or DC outlets is typically far too high for most household appliances to handle, so the current is passed through a step-down transformer to reduce the voltage to a usable level.

If a star system 30 parsecs distant is found to be broadcasting intelligent radio signals, then their news is already approximat

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

97.85 years, approximately.

Explanation:

Light travels at a constant speed of 186,000 mi/seg or 300,000km/seg accross the Universe (in vacuum conditions). Radio waves are also part of the electromagnetic spectrum, and they also travel at the same speed as Light does.

A light-year is a measure of the distance that Light travels during a year, that is, 5.88 trillion miles. Light travels the same distance per year because its speed is constant, and this is an excellent property that scientists take advantage to measure distances.

A parsec is 3.26 light-years (19 trillion miles), and (a very important datum to solve this question) one light-year is 0.306601 parsec, that is, in a year Light travels 0.306601 parsec at a constant speed. The same would happen with intelligent radio signals broadcasted from a distant star system.

So, considering all these facts, it is a matter of proportions to solve this question (mostly because speed of Light is constant):

$\frac{1 year}{0.306601 parsec} = \frac{X years}{30 parsecs}$

$x =\frac{1 year * 30 parsec}{0.306601 parsec}$

$x = \frac{30}{0.306601} years$

x = 97.84704 years or,

x = 97.85 years, approximately.

In other words, Light spends 97.85 years (terrestials) to travel 30 parsecs.

Likewise, radio waves travel at the same speed, so they spend the same years (97.85 years) travelling across the Universe to be finally detected by a radiotelescope located, for instance, here, in our planet.

Finally, the star system broadcasted intelligent radio signal with 'news' that are already approximately 97.85 years old'.

Can anyone help me with these questions?

densk [106]

Answers and explanations:

Question 1:

a. True

Explanation:

According to data released by the Tetris company in 2018 Tetris has sold over 500million copies. The second best-selling video game is Minecraft with circa 180millon copies according to Microsoft

Question 2:

b. Challenges or conflicts.

Explanation

A game should include the following elements:

Willingness to participate
Goals to achieve, or challenges
Rules and strategies that ought to be followed overcome the challenges
An agent to compete against. This can another player (human or not), the environment of the game, or even the rules of the game.
The addition of agent to compete against, create an essential element for games: conflict.

Question 3:

c. Third-person perspective

Explanation

In video games, several perspectives modify how the player interacts with the character and the environment.

1st person perspective: the player sees what the main character sees. Like in Doom.
2nd person perspective: the player sees the main character through the eyes of a third character. Like in Mario 64, the player sees Mario from the perspective of Lakitu.
3rd person perspective: The player sees the main character body entirely, like a character in a movie. Over the shoulder, perspective is similar to 3rd person, but the camera is fixed to the main character shoulder.
Top-Down perspective: where the player sees both the main character and the map from an "aerial" view
etc...

Question 4:

b. tactical

Explanation

Tactics and strategy are usually used interchangeably. However, strategy is the whole action plan to achieve an overall outcome. Like winning a football match. Tactics, on the other hand, refer to the immediate and in-situ efficient usage of resources to achieve a small objective. Like scoring a goal. In Henry Hatsworth, the immersion experience comes from the ability to master the tactics to play a combination of puzzles with action platformer.

Question 5:

c. AI.

Explanation

Gameplay makes reference to the way in which a player interacts with a game. It econpases game mechanics, challenges, story, etc...

Game mechanics are the rules and methods through which a player can achieve the game goals. For instance, a game can be turn-based or real-time strategy.

Roguelike is a specific kind of games based on the exploration of dungeons.

In videogames, a developer can adjust the AI of NPC to react more or less assertive or aggressively to player actions. This can alter the whole gameplay experience, so must be done carefully.

Question 6.

a. A video recap

Explanation:

A video recap can help developers to asses how players interact with the videogame

Question 7:

b) What marketing strategy will I use for my game?

Explanation

Game development requires resources, you need to think about how you are going to sell the game to investors or crowd-funders in order to actually being able to materialise any idea.

Question 8

c) It means you can learn how to play the game almost inmediately, but you will want to keep playing for a long time in order to master it.

Explanation

Some games have simple mechanics, like simple rules that are easy to understand. However, this does not determine the overall gameplay complexity. Go is an example of simple mechanics and extremely complex and in-depth gameplay.

Question 9

b. False

Explanation

FPV provides the player with a limited but detailed view of the map. On the contrary, a top-down perspective provides a broader view possible on a map.

Question 10:

b. First-person view.

Explanation

please check explanation on question 3.

Question 11:

c. Passively

Explanation

A player cannot be a passive spectator. They must engage actively in gameplay in order to overcome the challenges and advance on the game. This is why games are different from most forms of entertainment, in which the spectator acts passively and cannot affect the outcome of the story.

Question 12

b. False

Explanation:

The characteristics mentioned are typically found on puzzle games. Adventure games focus on telling a story about a lifechanging journey. They may contain many mechanics and elements (such as puzzles) but they are focused on telling the character story.

Question 13

d. Resource management

Explanation

Economy is the study of resource management (not only money). Therefore, any game that has a resource management component involves a certain degree of economic mechanics. This component is more prominent in RTS and city-building games.

Question 14.

b. Tetris

Explanation

The core mechanic of Tetris is to align geometric pieces that fall from the top of the screen. Each time the pieces are aligned in a horizontal line, the line disappears.

Question 15.

a. True
