1 Answer

Answer :

 First Generation Computers (1940-1956):

 They used vacuum tube technology.

 Vacuum tubes produce lot of heat and needs to be cooled with A.C.

 Their examples were ENIAC, UNIVAC-I, IBM-604, Mark-I and EDSAC etc.

 This generation computers had following drawbacks:

a) Very big in size

b) Slow in speed and have less memory

c) Large power consumption

d) Difficult maintenance.

 Third Generation Computers (1963-1971):

 They used Integrated circuits consisting of transistors, diode and resistances.

 These computers were smaller and consume very less power.

 These computers used more versatile programs like real time programming.

 They can run different applications at the same time.

 Their examples were Burroughs 6700, IBM System / 360, System 3 and Control Data Corporations 3300 and 6600.

Description : A school has 4 sections of class 12, such that half the number of students of 1st section, 1/3rd of 2nd section, 1/4th of 3rd section and 1/5th of the 4th section are equal. If total number of students in ... find the number of students in sections 1st and 2nd. A) 180 B) 120 C) 240 D) 150 E) 260

Last Answer : Answer: D Let number of students in 4 sections be A, B, C, D respectively. Then 1/2 of A = 1/3 of b = 1/4 of C = 1/5 of D So A : B : C : D = 2 : 3 : 4 : 5 [When A/2 = B/3 = C/4, then ratio A: B : C = 2 : 3 : 4] So students in 1st and 2nd section = [(2+3)/(2+3+4+5)] * 420 = 150
