Identify a true statement about a nanotube-based computer.
A) It operates with just two bytes of information, and can only count to 16.
B) It operates with just one bit of information, and can only count to 64.
C) It operates with just one bit of information, and can only count to 8.
D) It operates with just one bit of information, and can only count to 32.
E) It operates with just two bytes of information, and can only count to 32.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A nanotube-based computer operates with just one bit of information, meaning it can only have two possible values (0 or 1). With one bit, it can count up to 2 (2^1) which is more than 1 or 8 but less than 16 or 32. Therefore, the best choice is D (can only count up to 32 with two bytes of information).
