Assertion and Reason Based questions
Q 1 Assertion - Switch is intelligent than Hub
Reason - Switch broadcast the signals and Hub unicast it.
Q 2 - Assertion - In circuit switching generally wastage of bandwidth happen more as compared to packet
switching.
Reason - As in packet switching, packets can travel through different paths but in circuit switching all packets
travel through same path.
Q 3 Assertion - Cookies help to load website faster on next visit.
Reason - Cookies are small files which store website related data.
Q4.- Assertion - VoIP stands for Voice Over Internet Protocol.
Reason:- It is a technology that allows you to make voice calls using a broadband internet connection
instead of a regular phone line.
Q5:- Assertion:- Static webpage contains content that do not change Reasoning:- They
may only change if the actual HTML file is manually edited. Q6. Assertion:-
The internet is the world wide system of computer networks.
Reasoning:-All computers on the internet communicate with each other using POP/IMAP protocol which is the
basic protocol of Internet.
Q7. Assertion:- Browser is the software to access internet based webpages in the computer.
Reasoning:-LAN Is a network where two or more computers are connected within few
Kms.
