Question 8
How many bits in a byte?
A. 4
B. 8
C. 16
D. 32
View Answer
Answer - B.
Explanation - The smallest unit of measurement used for measuring data is a bit. A single bit can have a value of either zero(0) or one(1). It may contain a binary value (such as True/False or On/Off or 1/0) and nothing more. Therefore, a byte, or eight bits, is used as the fundamental unit of measurement for data storage. A byte can store 256 different values, which is sufficient to represent standard ASCII table, such as all numbers, letters and control symbols.

A given signal's second harmonic is twice the given signal's __________ frequency...?
A. Fourier
B. Foundation
C. Fundamental
D. Field
View Answer
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
A given signal's second harmonic is twice the given signal's fundamental frequency. Harmonics are generated when there are non-linearities in an amplifier (there are always non-linearities). The worse the non-linearities, the more harmonics. A signal at 27.5 MHz (approximate frequency for US citizen's band) would have a second harmonic at 55.0 MHz (on US channel 2!). Can you see why there might be problems? A CB operator might do well to place a low-pass filter on his radio.
Question 24
After the first photons of light are produced, which process is responsible for amplification of the light?
A. Blackbody radiation
B. Stimulated emission
C. Planck's radiation
D. Einstein oscillation
View Answer
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
The word "laser" is actually an acronym for light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. Atoms or molecules of the active medium that have been excited to a higher energy level are stimulated by a passing photon to relax to a lower energy level and emit a photon that is indistinguishable from the passing photon, thereby increasing the number of photons like the incident one.

Compact discs, (according to the original CD specifications) hold how many minutes of music?
A. 74 mins
B. 56 mins
C. 60 mins
D. 90 mins

Question 66
When measuring the characteristics of a small-signal amplifier, say for a radio receiver, one might be concerned with its "Noise..."?
A. Fundamental
B. Fall
C. Force
D. Figure
View Answer
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
"Noise figure" is one critical parameter for determining the "quality" of a low-noise, small-signal, amplifier, and perhaps more importantly, the sensitivity of the overall receiver system. It is especially important for VHF (very high frequency) - and higher frequency - designs where most of the undesired "noise" (noise that masks or overpowers the desired signals) is generated internal to the electronics itself. In HF (high frequency) applications, atmospheric noise plays a much larger role in determining overall useful sensitivity, so a circuit's "noise figure" is less important.

Question 69
Which is a type of Electrically-Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory?
A. Flash
B. Flange
C. Fury
D. FRAM
View Answer
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
It's commonly used for MP3 players, computer BIOS code and "thumb" drives. Originally developed in Japan by Toshiba, it has become quite popular for products requiring non-volatile erasable memory. Flash devices have a limited number of erase cycles (typically 10,000 to 1,000,000 cycles) so they're not as good a choice for applications in which the data changes constantly. However, since it has no moving parts (unlike a hard disk) it is an excellent choice for storing the operating code for small personal electronics like PDAs, cell phones, digital cameras, and the data in items like MP3 players.

A given signal's second harmonic is twice the given signal's __________ frequency?
A. Fourier
B. Foundation
C. Fundamental
D. Field
View Answer
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
A given signal's second harmonic is twice the given signal's fundamental frequency. Harmonics are generated when there are non-linearities in an amplifier (there are always non-linearities). The worse the non-linearities, the more harmonics. A signal at 27.5 MHz (approximate frequency for US citizen's band) would have a second harmonic at 55.0 MHz (on US channel 2!). Can you see why there might be problems? A CB operator might do well to place a low-pass filter on his radio.
