So can someone please put up a complete set of the correct answers?
Considering they havent started marking it - where do u think those "right" answers might come from
it has happened before where 2 answers have been deemed "right"

Before that wtf question gets settled, I'd get 20 according to Lwaxana.

No, really, what IS the answer for 17?

19 can't be b cause how could Medium 2 connect a 'cordless' telephone? (Unless its wireless transmission media, but that's obviously Medium 1)

there is no way B is the better answer, how can u connect a cordless telephone with copper cable, and i want to go to your house if you use fibre-optic cable to connect your computers to the internet, (although you do have quite a few posts on this forum ;) )

Cordless telephone doesn't use a transmission media that's relatively inexpensive. It might be so but then low range would mean that I can't bring my cordless phone outside.. =\

There's no way it's B. The question says "the table describes the chracterstics of optic fibre cable, copper cable and wireless transmission media..."

medium 1 is obviously wireless, so medium 2 can't be.

For Q19, if you think about it, you could easily rule out the others. D is ruled out cause Medium 1 requires 'cabling'. B is ruled out cause a cordless phone doesn't require wires. A is ruled out because Medium 3 (optic fibre) would be too expensive to use for a printer.

q 17

Just a question...cos i dont understand. But my logic was that: The diagram is indicating that the disc is moving in a lockwise direction. And "A" is closest to the read/write head so therefore it comes first. Then C, E, B, D. I did think optical disk but that combination (from my logic doesnt work).

So...i put C, taking note of the could, which leaves it as a possibility. Anyhow, its one mark so im not fussed, just curious. So, if my logic is wrong can u correct it/expalin. Thanks :)

I was pretty clueless, i narrowed it down to A or D and put A down. Why can't it be A?
