True or False statements

Question

4) Computer designers can set a computer's clock tick rate to as fast as they want.

5) A computer chip with a fast clock may get very hot to the touch.

6) Many computers have a fan that blows room air over a computer's CPU chip to keep the chip cool.

Answer 1

Here are the answers to your true or false statements:

4. False - While computer designers can design chips with faster clock rates, practical limitations exist, such as power consumption, heat dissipation, and the physical properties of materials used in the chip’s construction.

5. True - A computer chip with a fast clock speed can generate more heat because it switches states more frequently, which can make it hot to the touch.

6. True - Many computers, especially those with powerful CPUs, have fans that blow air over the CPU and other components to help dissipate heat and keep them cool.
