Q:

What is process synchronization?

Answer

A situation, where several processes access and manipulate the same data concurrently and the outcome of the execution depends on the particular order in which the access takes place, is called race condition. To guard against the race condition we need to ensure that only one process at a time can be manipulating the same data. The technique we use for this is called process synchronization.

Q:

As water is cooled from 4 deg C to 0 deg C, its density

A) decreases B) increases
C) remains same D) zero
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) decreases

Explanation:

When water is cooled from 4°C to 0°C, its density decreases.

 

When water cools from 4°C to 0°C, ice crystals begin to form because the water is approaching its freezing point. When water freezes, the water molecules form a lattice that increases the volume. As a result, the density decreases. This is why ice will float on top of water; ice has a lower density than the water.
