Q:

A capillary tube is partially dipped vertically in a vessel containing water. Due to capillarity  water rises in the tube. The height of water rise in the tube can be increased by 

A) decreasing the radius of the capillary tube B) increasing the radius of the capillary tube
C) increasing the height of water in the vessel D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) decreasing the radius of the capillary tube

Explanation:

The water rise in a capillary tube dipped in water is such that the weight of water in the tube above the surface of water in the vessel is equal to (balances) the upward force due to surface tension. So it is clear that if the the bore (radius) to the tube is decreased, the height of the water column in it must be greater.  So, (a) is correct.

Q:

What is the Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB)?

Answer

In a cached system, the base addresses of the last few referenced pages is maintained in registers called the TLB that aids in faster lookup. TLB contains those page-table entries that have been most recently used. Normally, each virtual memory reference causes 2 physical memory accesses- one to fetch appropriate page-table entry, and one to fetch the desired data. Using TLB in-between, this is reduced to just one physical memory access in cases of TLB-hit.
