    When corresponding to an e-mail, which would you not use to follow proper e-mail etiquette?

    • Keep emails brief and to the point.

    • Read your email out loud to yourself.

    • Consistently use the “Reply-to-All” feature.

    • Ensure attachments are appropriate to supplement your message.

    Correct Answer
    A. Consistently use the “Reply-to-All” feature.
    Explanation
    Using the "Reply-to-All" feature consistently would not follow proper email etiquette. This feature should only be used when it is necessary for everyone in the email thread to receive the response. In most cases, it is more appropriate to reply only to the sender or to select specific recipients who need to be included in the conversation. Using "Reply-to-All" unnecessarily can clutter inboxes and waste the time of individuals who do not need to be involved in the discussion.

    Which document is not considered an official government record?

    • Published doctrines.

    • Geographical base maps.

    • Photographs of a retreat ceremony.

    • Library reference or museum exhibitions.

    Correct Answer
    A. Library reference or museum exhibitions.
    Explanation
    Library reference or museum exhibitions are not considered official government records because they are not primary sources of information created or maintained by the government. Official government records typically include documents such as laws, regulations, official reports, and administrative records that are used for legal, administrative, or historical purposes. Library references and museum exhibitions may contain information about government records, but they are not the records themselves. They are secondary sources that provide interpretations, analysis, or summaries of the primary sources.

    For which exception will federal records centers accept records having less than 3 years of retention?

    • Casualties.

    • Base closures.

    • Deployed AF units.

    • Joint force operations.

    Correct Answer
    A. Base closures.
    Explanation
    Federal records centers will accept records with less than 3 years of retention for base closures. This implies that when a military base is closed, the records related to that base can be transferred to federal records centers even if they have not been retained for the standard 3-year period. This exception recognizes the unique circumstances surrounding base closures and the need to properly manage and preserve the associated records.

    Rate this question:

  • 31. 

    What topology consists of devices connected to a common, shared cable?

    • Bus.

    • Ring.

    • Star.

    • Hybrid.

    Correct Answer
    A. Bus.
    Explanation
    A bus topology consists of devices connected to a common, shared cable. In this topology, all devices are connected to a single cable, called the bus, which acts as a communication medium. The devices on the network can transmit data by sending signals onto the bus, and all devices on the network receive and process these signals. This topology is simple and cost-effective, but it can be prone to congestion and network failures if the bus cable is damaged.

    Rate this question:

  • 32. 

    What type of network connects networks that are typically separated by geographical distances between cities, states, countries, or around the world?

    • Local Area Network.

    • Wide Area Network.

    • Virtual Private Network.

    • Metropolitan Area Network.

    Correct Answer
    A. Wide Area Network.
    Explanation
    A Wide Area Network (WAN) is the type of network that connects networks that are typically separated by geographical distances between cities, states, countries, or around the world. Unlike a Local Area Network (LAN) which connects devices within a limited area, a WAN enables communication over large distances. A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a secure connection that allows users to access a private network remotely, and a Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) connects networks within a specific metropolitan area. Therefore, the correct answer is Wide Area Network.

    What is the type of memory that retains data after power is removed or lost?

    • Volatile.

    • Nonvolatile.

    • Secured.

    • Unsecured.

    Correct Answer
    A. Nonvolatile.
    Explanation
    Nonvolatile memory refers to a type of memory that retains data even after power is removed or lost. Unlike volatile memory, which loses its stored information when power is cut off, nonvolatile memory is designed to preserve data for long periods of time. This type of memory is commonly used in devices such as solid-state drives (SSDs), flash drives, and memory cards, where data needs to be stored even when the device is turned off.

    Rate this question:

    Which landline transmission medium is the primary carrier of voice communications?

    • Twisted pair cable.

    • Fiber optic cable.

    • Coaxial cable.

    • Twinax cable.

    Correct Answer
    A. Twisted pair cable.
    Explanation
    Twisted pair cable is the primary carrier of voice communications because it is a reliable and widely used transmission medium. It consists of pairs of insulated copper wires twisted together, which helps to reduce interference and crosstalk. Twisted pair cables are cost-effective, easy to install, and can support voice signals effectively over short to medium distances. While fiber optic cables offer higher bandwidth and faster data transmission, they are primarily used for data communication rather than voice. Coaxial and twinax cables are also used for various purposes, but twisted pair cables are specifically designed and commonly used for voice communication.

    What is the method called when the entire frame is received and placed into the buffer, an error check is performed, and the frame is sent to the proper port for delivery?

    • Store-and-forward.

    • Cross-over.

    • Fragment-free.

    • Adaptive.

    Correct Answer
    A. Store-and-forward.
    Explanation
    Store-and-forward is the method where the entire frame is received and stored in the buffer. An error check is then performed to ensure the integrity of the frame. Once the error check is passed, the frame is sent to the appropriate port for delivery. This method ensures that the frame is fully received and error-free before forwarding it, thereby minimizing the chances of data corruption or transmission errors.

    A. Nonionizing radiation.
    Explanation
    Nonionizing radiation refers to a type of radiation that does not have enough energy to remove tightly bound electrons from atoms, thus causing minimal damage to tissues. Unlike ionizing radiation, which can cause harm at the cellular level and lead to deep tissue damage, nonionizing radiation such as microwaves and sunlight do not have enough energy to cause these harmful effects. Therefore, a person can absorb selectively damaging amounts of nonionizing radiation without experiencing skin heating or any noticeable sensation.

    What type of network makes use of tunneling and security protocols to enables a group of two or more computer systems to communicate over the public Internet?

    • Local Area Network.

    • Wide Area Network.

    • Virtual Private Network.

    • Metropolitan Area Network.

    Correct Answer
    A. Virtual Private Network.
    Explanation
    A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a type of network that utilizes tunneling and security protocols to enable communication between two or more computer systems over the public Internet. It provides a secure and private connection by encrypting the data transmitted between the systems, making it suitable for remote access, connecting branch offices, or accessing private networks from outside locations. Unlike Local Area Networks (LANs) or Wide Area Networks (WANs), a VPN creates a virtual network that operates within the public Internet infrastructure, ensuring confidentiality and privacy of data. A Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) is a network that connects multiple LANs within a specific geographic area and is not directly related to tunneling or security protocols.
