3) A machine took 200 sec to sort 200 names, using bubble sort. In 800 sec, it can
approximately sort ?
a.
b.
c.
d.
400
800
750
800
names
names
names
names
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = A
Explanation:For sorting 200 names bubble sort makes 200 x 199/2 = 19900 comparisons. The
time needed for 1 comparison is 200 sec. In 800 sec it can make 80,000 comparisons. We have to
fine n, such that n(n - 1)/2 = 80,000. From this n is approximately 400.
4) A machine needs a minimum of 100 sec to sort 1000 names by quick sort.The
minimum time needed to sort 100 names will be approximately ?
a.
b.
c.
d.
50.2 sec
6.7 sec
72.7 sec
11.2 sec
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = B
Explanation: In the best case quick sort algorithm makes n log(n) comparisons. so 1000
x log (1000) = 9000 comparisons, which takes 100 sec. To sort 100 names a minimum of
100 log(100) = 600 comparisons are needed. This takes 100 x 600/9000 = 6.7 sec.

then makes a "s-state" check to test for possible deadlock conditions for all other
pending activities, before deciding whether allocation should be allowed to continue.

none of these
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = A
Explanation: The short-term scheduler (also known as the CPU scheduler) decides which

5) Round robin scheduling algorithm falls under the category of ?
a.
b.
c.
d.
Preemptive scheduling
Non preemptive scheduling
sometimes preemptive sometimes non preemptive
None of these
Show/Hide Answer
Answer = A
Explanation: Round-robin (RR) is one of the simplest scheduling algorithms for
processes in an operating system. As the term is generally used, time slices are assigned
to each process in equal portions and in circular order, handling all processes without
priority.In order to schedule processes fairly, a round-robin scheduler generally employs
time-sharing, giving each job a time slot or quantum (its allowance of CPU time), and
interrupting the job if it is not completed by then. So it falls under preemptive
scheduling.
