Consider a disk that rotates at 3600 rpm. The seek time to move the head between adjacent tracks is 2 ms. There are 32 sectors p

er track, which are stored in linear order from sector 0 through sector 31. The head sees the sectors in ascending order. Assume the read/write head is positioned at the start of sector 1 on track 8. There is a main memory buffer large enough to hold an entire track. Data is transferred between disk locations by reading from the source track into the main memory buffer and then writing the data from the buffer to the target track. a. How long will it take to transfer sector 1 on track 8 to sector 1 on track 9

Answer:

19.71 ms

Explanation:

The disk rotates at 3600 rpm, hence the time for one revolution = 60 / 3600 rpm = 16.67 ms.

Hence time to read or write on a sector = time for one revolution / number of sectors per track = 16.67 ms / 32 sectors = 0.52 ms

Head movement time from track 8 to track  9 = seek time = 2 ms

rotation time to head up sector 1 on track 8 to sector 1 on track 9 = 16.67 * 31/32 = 16.15 ms

The total time = sector read time +head movement time + rotational delay + sector write time = 0.52 ms + 2 ms + 16.15 ms + 0.52 ms = 19.19 ms

What is the output of the following code? stackList stack; int x, y; x = 2; y = 3; stack.push(8); stack.push(x); stack.push(x +
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Stack is LIFO data structure (Last In First Out) where the last element entered in stack will be the last one to be out of stack. It has three operations: push() : used to insert an element in stack, pop() : used to delete an element from the stack, top() : used to return the top of the stack i.e. the newest member of the stack. All these operations will take place at the top.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Now, looking at the program, x and y are initialized the values of 2 and 3 respectively. The stack pushes 8 onto the stack making it the first member of the stack. Then the value of x which is 2 is pushed onto the stack. Next, (x+5) = (2+5) = 7 is pushed onto the stack.

Pop() is used to delete hence 7 is popped out from the stack. top() is assigned to y which is 2 in this case and again 2 is popped out from the stack. Now, (x+y) = (2+2) = 4 is pushed onto the stack. And the top() is assigned to x which is 4. 4 is again popped out from the stack. Hence the value of x is 4.
