Question 1

Hypertext/hypermedia systems only work in a linear fashion in respect to the organization and retrieval of information.

Accepted Answer

Hypertext/hypermedia systems allow for non-linear connections and navigation between different pieces of information, enabling users to follow various paths through content based on links, rather than a fixed, linear sequence.

Question 2

Videodisks dominate the optical media market.

Accepted Answer

Videodisks, such as LaserDiscs, have been largely superseded by more advanced optical media formats like DVDs and Blu-ray discs, which offer higher storage capacity, better quality, and more widespread compatibility.

Question 3

The ______ has a higher storage capacity than a ______.&#10;A) CD-ROM&#10;B) WORM

Accepted Answer

CD-ROM&#10;WORM&#10;

Question 4

In one variation, a ________ system is designed to playback high quality movies. Because of its large capacity, it may support special features (e.g., director's audio cut or narration). It is also used for computer data storage.

A) WORM
B) CD-ROM
C) DVD
D) CD

Accepted Answer

DVDs are known for their high storage capacity compared to CDs, making them suitable for high-quality movie playback and additional content like director's commentary, as well as for storing computer data.

Question 5

is the first optical system to gain widespread acceptance in the computer information storage field. It can hold over 600 megabytes of data, and in one application, has been used to distribute computer programs.

A) WORM
B) CD-ROM
C) DVD
D) CD

Accepted Answer

CD-ROM was the first optical system to gain widespread acceptance in the computer information storage field, capable of holding over 600 megabytes of data and commonly used to distribute computer programs.

Question 6

system stores audio information. It is a high fidelity, audio medium. It was the first major optical disc system to gain widespread consumer acceptance.&#10;A) WORM&#10;B) CD-ROM&#10;C) DVD&#10;D) CD

Accepted Answer

The CD (Compact Disc) was the first major optical disc system to gain widespread consumer acceptance and is known for storing high fidelity audio information.

Question 7

system is sold without prerecorded data. It can be used for archival storage.&#10;A) WORM&#10;B) CD-ROM&#10;C) DVD&#10;D) CD

Accepted Answer

WORM (Write Once, Read Many) systems are designed to be written to once and read from multiple times, without the ability to erase or modify the written data. This makes them ideal for archival storage purposes, as they ensure the integrity and permanence of the stored data. Unlike rewritable storage media (e.g., CD-RW, DVD-RW), WORM devices are sold without prerecorded data and are specifically designed for secure, long-term storage where data modification is not allowed.

Question 8

A ______ is a hologram that functions as an optical element.&#10;A) LED&#10;B) HOE&#10;C) HEO&#10;D) FOE

Accepted Answer

HOE stands for Holographic Optical Element, which is a hologram designed to function as an optical element, such as a lens, mirror, or diffraction grating.

Question 9

Is one technique that can be used to inspect products for manufacturing defects.&#10;A) Holographic Indusion&#10;B) Heads-up Display&#10;C) Holographic Embossing&#10;D) Holographic

Accepted Answer

Holography can be used in quality control processes to inspect products for defects by creating three-dimensional images of the items. This technique allows for detailed examination of the internal and external structures of products without physical dissection or destruction.

Question 10

A hologram can capture the ______ information that composes a scene.&#10;A) tri-dimensional&#10;B) optical&#10;C) metaphysical&#10;D) logical

Accepted Answer

The answer of A hologram can capture the ______ information...
