C
Correct answer
Explanation
The computer networks make resources available to any one on the network regardless of the physical location of the resource or the user. The files can be shared in a computer network in two ways. The one way is to transmit the file or data form your computer to the other computer directly. The other way is to send data to an intermediate place, from where the other person can pick it up later.

A
Correct answer
Explanation
Bandwidth is the number of bits processed in a single instruction. It is the total maximum capacity of a network connection. Wide Area Network processed 10 kbps-600 mbps in a single instruction.

Physical topology
-
Logical topology
-
Star topology
D
Correct answer
Explanation
It is designed with each node which is connected directly to central network hub or concentrator. Usually the central node has the peripherals that are to be shared across the network attached to it and often it acts as a file and printer server to the rest of the stations on the network. The hub or concentrator manages and controls all functions of the network. Concentrator is also called hub.

C
Correct answer
Explanation
It is a device that connects two or more networks. It receives data from one side and determine, is destination on the other side of router. If yes, than packet is forwarded; If no, it will forwarded the packets to next router. So it controls the data transmission traffic.
A
Correct answer
Explanation
Modem is a device that translates the digital signals of computer into analog signals which can travel across conventional phone lines. It is the combination of modulation and demodulation. Modulation means converting signals digital to analog and Demodulation mean converting signals analog to digital.

-
Star topology
-
Ring topology
-
Mesh topology
-
Bus topology
B
Correct answer
Explanation
Ring topology are wired in circle. Each node (computer) is connected to its neighbors on either side. The last node gets connected to first node and data passes around the ring in one direction only. It is easy to install. In this addition and removal of computers in already existing network is difficult. If any one node goes down or damage than whole network goes down.
