Answer:

The capacity of the disk is "40 GB".

Explanation:

Given value:

\to \text{cylinder}= 10,000\\\\\to \frac{sector}{track} = 400\\\\\to \frac{bytes}{sector} = 512\\

\text{Calculating the size of track} =  \frac{bytes}{sector} \times  \frac{sector}{track}

                                            = 512 \times  400 \\\\ = 204,800 \ \ Or  \ \ 200 \ K

\text{Calculating the size of surface} = \frac{byte}{track} \times \ cylinder

                                               = 2000 \ K \times  10,000 \\\\ = 20, 000,000 \ K

\text{Calculating the capacity of a disk} = \frac{byte}{surface} \times \frac{surface}{disk}

                                                     = 20, 000,000 \ K \times  2 \\\\ = 40, 000,000 \ K \\\\= 40 \ GB

Cache memory is often used to speed up the runtime. It will enable us to improve performance unless we can store information, that is retrieved constantly in memory space.

  • Hit Cache: when the Processor relates to representing database data, Cache Hit results.
  • Miss Cache: when this Processor responds to a non-present cache data, this will trigger its miss of cache.
  • It doesn't have to retrieve the Main Memory through secondary storage.

The ____ line for any e-mail messages you write should clearly state the intention of the e-mail..
KatRina [158]

The <u>subject </u>line for any e-mail messages you write should clearly state the intention of the e-mail.

Electronic mail (e-mail) is a method of digital communications in which messages are exchanged through the internet. The messages are sent from a sender to one or more receivers.  Depending on user’s perspective, every user uses e-mail differently.  Communicating via e-mail requires e-mail platforms such as G*mail, Ya*hoo! Mail, Hot*mail, and Out*look etc. In the every e-mail, there is a subject line that clearly state the intention of the e-mail.

Subject line is an important element of an e-mail. Through the subject line, the message written in the e-mail is briefly summarized in six to eight words. A clearly written subject line provides the recipient a clear understanding that why the email has been sent. When recipient replies back to the e-mail, the subject line is changed accordingly.

This is the subject line of the e-mail that convince the receiver whether to open and read the e-mail. So, it should be written in the way that gives clear intention of the e-mail. We can say that the subject line of the e-mail is the most significant few words in the whole e-mail to convey the main purpose of the e-mail.
