1. What is the purpose of a heat sink?

Explanation

A heat sink is a device used to dissipate heat generated by a processor or other electronic components. It is designed to absorb and transfer the heat away from the processor, helping to prevent overheating. By increasing the surface area exposed to the surrounding air, a heat sink allows for more efficient cooling through convection. This helps to maintain the optimal temperature for the processor to function properly and avoid damage caused by excessive heat.
