What is your stance regarding the two endings to the Roger Skunk story? |
|
Answer» It is interesting to contrast the two endings of the Roger Skunk story. Jack's ending of the story is quite mature and practical. It points out the harsh realities that one has to go through in life. The world is based on individual differences; every species of animals has its distinct features, which must be respected and accepted in totality. Moreover, parents know what is best for their children, and their decisions should be respected and obeyed. Jo wanted the story to end happily. She wanted Roger Skunk's problems solved and expected that he would live happily, playing with his new friends. This ending too is justified when we look at it from a child's point of view.As a child, Jo was unable to understand the worth of one's originality and individuality. Besides, it is difficult for children to understand or explain unhappy endings. |

Liquids have fluidity and they do not have a definite shape. Explain. |
|
Answer» 1. The forces among the constituent particles (atoms/molecules) are called intermolecular forces. 2. In liquids, the intermolecular forces are strong enough to keep the particles within the bulk in aggregation, but not strong enough to keep them in fixed positions. As a result, they flow easily and change shapes according to that of container. |

What is meant by Protocol? What protocols are used on the internet? Explain.OrWhat is the Protocol? Why is it needed in networks? Explain.OrWrite in brief Protocol. |
|
Answer» Protocol: Protocol is a software, i.e., set of rules which are used to establish communication between several computers. It defines the exact order in which two machines exchange data with one another. Protocols are technical customs or guidelines that govern the exchange of signal transmission and reception between equipment. Each protocol specifies the exact order in which signals will be transferred. Both Hardware and software are designed to handle specific protocols. Functions of Protocol: There are the following functions of protocol:
Examples: 1. TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol): TCP breaks up the data to be sent into packets. It guarantees that any data sent to the destination computer reaches it. IP is a set of conventions used to send packets from one host to another. It is responsible for routing the packets to a desired destination IP address. 2. X.12: This protocol is used to establish a connection between companies to exchange important papers. 3. X. 25: This protocol establishes the interface for common data network. 4. HTTP: HyperText Transfer Protocol works on the internet to send or receive files from different locations. |
