Answer:

True

Explanation:

A computer can be defined as an electronic device that is capable of receiving of data in its raw form as input and processes these data into information that could be used by an end user.

Generally, a computer is composed of five (5) main components and these include;

I. Input unit.

II. Output unit.

III. Central processing unit (CPU).

IV. Storage (memory) unit.

V. Power supply unit (PSU).

A power supply also referred to as power supply unit (PSU) can be defined as a hardware component of a computer that converts and step-down the domestic alternating current (AC) electrical power to a low-voltage regulated direct current (DC) power, so that the internal components of a computer can be supplied with power.

Hence, the power supply unit (PSU) serves as a rectifier by converting alternating current (AC) house current to direct current (DC) and as a transformer to step-down voltage from 220 Volts or 110 Volts to 50, 30, or 20 Volts depending on the requirements of a computer.

15. How many PC’s can be connected to a UPS?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer: Depends on the power of the computer /computers and the UPS

Explanation: For someone who had a big connected network of computers and printers we would plug the computer or server into the UPS as well as the monitor and sometimes a printer sometimes the monitor was plugged into the wall

When you get a UPS you must plug it in for a certain time could be hours or even a day.  A USP has a big battery in it and you must charge it (sometimes it comes semi-charged but you must plug it in to strengthen it. )

there are two connector wires that you affix to the battery and you must put a lot of strength into it to make it secure.

So in closing, you can get away with two like a desktop and a laptop.

Read your documentation that comes with the UPS
