Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When the power is switched off, everything in the main memory is lost. Main memory, also known as RAM (Random Access Memory), is a volatile storage device that stores data temporarily while a program is running. Once the power is turned off, the data is lost because it was not saved to a non-volatile storage device like a hard disk or a solid-state drive. Secondary storage devices like hard disks and floppy disks are non-volatile and can retain data even when the power is turned off.
