• Offers higher security as data is transmitted through physical mediums.

• Generally provides faster and more stable connections.

Wireless Transmission:

• Uses radio waves, microwaves, or infrared signals to transmit data.

• More convenient and flexible as it doesn't require physical connections.

• May suffer from interference and generally has a lower speed compared to wired
transmission.

22. Explain the concept of "Alternate Key" in a Relational Database Management

System with an appropriate example. 2

Ans: An Alternate Key is a column or set of columns in a table that can uniquely identify a
record, but which is not the primary key. There can be multiple alternate keys in a table.
Alternate keys are also known as candidate keys, and they provide an alternative way to
identify records uniquely apart from the primary key.

(b) What is the need of Protocols?

Ans: Protocols are needed to establish rules for data exchange over networks. They ensure
that devices can communicate effectively, securely, and reliably. Protocols define the syntax,
semantics, and synchronization of communication and allow different devices from various
manufacturers to work together seamlessly. They also handle error detection, data
compression, and encryption, making data transfer efficient and secure.

www.vedantu.com 13
25. (a) Differentiate between CHAR and VARCHAR data types in SQL with appropriate
example. 2

Ans:

CHAR: CHAR is a fixed-length data type. When a CHAR column is defined with a specific
length, it always reserves that number of characters, regardless of the actual data length. If the
data is shorter than the defined length, the remaining space is padded with spaces.

• Example: CHAR(10) will always use 10 bytes of storage, even if the data is only 3
characters long (e.g., 'abc' will be stored as 'abc ').

VARCHAR: VARCHAR is a variable-length data type. When a VARCHAR column is defined

with a specific length, it only uses as much storage space as the actual data plus one or two
extra bytes for length information. No padding is added.

• Example: VARCHAR(10) will use only as many bytes as needed to store the actual
data (e.g., 'abc' will use 3 bytes).

OR

(b) Name any two DDL and any two DML commands. 2

Ans:

DDL (Data Definition Language) Commands:

2. ALTER: Used to modify an existing database object, such as a table.

DML (Data Manipulation Language) Commands:

1. INSERT: Used to add new rows of data to a table.

SECTION D

31. Quickdev, an IT based firm, located in Delhi is planning to set up a network for its
four branches within a city with its Marketing department in Kanpur. As a network
professional, give solutions to the questions (i) to (v), after going through the branches
locations and other details which are given below:

Distance between various branches is as follows:

www.vedantu.com 30
Number of computers in each of the branches:

(i) Suggest the most suitable place to install the server for the Delhi branch with a
suitable reason. 1

Ans: The most suitable place to install the server for the Delhi branch is Branch D. This
decision is based on the following reasons:

• Number of Computers: Branch D has the highest number of computers (115) among
all branches, which indicates a higher demand for server resources.

• Central Location: Branch D is relatively central compared to the other branches. The
distances from Branch D to other branches are relatively short, which minimizes
latency and ensures better network performance.

www.vedantu.com 31
(ii) Suggest an ideal layout for connecting all these branches within Delhi. 1

Ans: An ideal layout for connecting all branches within Delhi would be a Star Topology. In
this topology, all the branches are connected to a central hub or switch. This allows for
efficient communication and management of the network.

(iii) Which device will you suggest, that should be placed in each of these branches to
efficiently connect all the computers within these branches? 1

Ans:

I would suggest placing Switches in each of these branches. Switches are efficient network
devices that allow multiple computers within a branch to communicate with each other and
with the central hub or switch in a star topology.

(iv) Delhi firm is planning to connect to its Marketing department in Kanpur which is
approximately 300 km away. Which type of network out of LAN, WAN or MAN will be
formed? Justify your answer. (v) Suggest a protocol that shall be needed to provide help
for transferring of files between Delhi and Kanpur branch. 1

Ans:

A WAN (Wide Area Network) will be formed. WAN is suitable for connecting networks over
large geographical distances, such as between cities or even countries. In this case,
connecting Delhi to Kanpur, which is 300 km away, requires a WAN setup.

www.vedantu.com 32
(v). Suggest a protocol that shall be needed to provide help for transferring of files
between Delhi and Kanpur branch.

Answer: The FTP (File Transfer Protocol) would be suitable for transferring files between
the Delhi and Kanpur branches. FTP is specifically designed for transferring files over a
network and is reliable for long-distance communication.

35. Shreyas is a programmer, who has recently been given a task to write a user defined
function named write_bin() to create a binary file called Cust_file.dat containing
customer information - customer number (c_no), name (c_name), quantity (qty), price
(price) and amount (amt) of each customer.

The function accepts customer number, name, quantity and price. Thereafter, it
displays the message Quantity less than 10..... Cannot SAVE", if quantity entered is less
than 10. Otherwise the function calculates amount as price quantity and then writes the
record in the form of a list into the binary file.

import pickle

def write_bin():

bin_file= #Statement 1

while True:

c_no=int(input("enter customer number"}} c_name-input ("enter customer name")

qty=int(input("enter qty"}}

price-int (input("enter price"))

if #Statement 2

print ("Quantity less than 10..Cannot SAVE")

else:

amt-price

qty

c_detail=[c_no, c_name, qty, price, amt]

#Statement 3

ans-input ("Do you wish to enter more records y/n") if ans.lower()=='n':

#Statement 4

#Statement 5

#Statement 6

(i) Write the correct statement to open a file 'Cust_file.dat' for writing the data of the
customer. 1

Ans:

bin_file = open('Cust_file.dat', 'wb') # Statement 1

(ii) Which statement should Shreyas fill in Statement 2 to check whether quantity is less
than 10. 1

Ans:

if int(qty) < 10: # Statement 2

(iii) Which statement should Shreyas fill in Statement 3 to write data to the binary file
and in Statement 4 to stop further processing if the user does not wish to enter more
records. 2

Ans:

pickle.dump(c_detail, bin_file) # Statement 3

if ans.lower() != 'y': # Statement 4

break

OR

(Option for part (iii) only)

(iii) What should Shreyas fill in Statement 5 to close the binary file named

Cust_ file.dat and in Statement 6 to call a function to write data in binary file? 2

Ans:

bin_file.close() # Statement 5

write_bin() # Statement 6
