This is called a "heat sink", essentially, a metal plate makes indirect <span>(its separated by thermal paste)</span> contact with the heat spreader of a cpu (central processing unit). The concept is that the heat sink is made of highly conductive materials thus conducting heat away from the CPU, quite often you'll find a fan attached to further disparate heat away from the heat-sink. These days you'll alternative cooling methods, the most common alternative is to use watercooling (another topic). GPU (graphic processing units) also have heatsinks.

Students who finish their homework after school are meeting a. intrapersonal and short-term goals b. normative and short-term go
3241004551 [841]

Answer: a. intrapersonal and short-term goals

Explanation:

Intrapersonal goals are those that we set for ourselves in our minds to accomplish. The students that are finishing their homework after school most probably set that goal in their minds and so meeting it would mean meeting their intrapersonal goals.

Homework is not a long term project but rather a short one that is usually meant to be completed within days. Completing it is therefore a short term goal.

The students who finish their homework after school are therefore accomplishing both their intrapersonal and short-term goals.

After class, Anita and Bev make plans to study for their psychology exam together but cannot decide on a time or location. In ad
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Option B; 30 SECONDS OR LESS.

Explanation:

Short-term memory, also known as primary or active memory, is the information we are currently aware of or thinking about.

When short-term memories are not rehearsed or actively maintained, they last mere seconds.

Most of the information kept in short-term memory will be stored for less than 30 seconds (approximately 20 to 30 seconds), but it can be just seconds if rehearsal or active maintenance of the information is not done.

Therefore, Anita likely will be able to retain the information in short-term memory, without additional processing, for 30 SECONDS OR LESS.

The IPv4 address scheme has enough IP addresses to give every blade of glass in the world its own unique IP. True False
Andrew [12]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

IPv4 address are composed of four octets (8 bit numbers), ranging from <em>0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255</em>

All those 32 bits, in decimal notation, can form a total of

2^{32} = 4,294,967,296 different addresses.

Being more than 4 billion addresses and ignoring that some addressesare reserved for special uses, even present human population almost doubles that number.

So it is safe to state that IPv4 addresses is <u>not </u>enough to give every blade of grass its own IP.
