The computer system provides an internal clock that sends an interrupt periodically to the CPU signaling that it’s time to start processing another program or thread. The time between interrupt pulses is known as a:.

Quantum

Explanation:

A quantum is the time between interrupt pulses, and represents the time each program will have allocated to it to run. a quantum specifies the duration of time an interrupt delays for, before sending an extra pulse to the CPU. This is to properly coordinate the functions of the input and output devices of the computer better.

Quantum times are not usually fixed. they can be 1 millisecond or up to 10 milliseconds depending on the tasks that need to be performed

only #2 represents an object at rest on a table.

in #1, there is no normal force due to the table; the object is accelerating downward.

in #3, the vertical forces are not balanced; the object is accelerating downward.

in #4, neither the vertical nor the horizontal forces are balanced. the object is accelerating upwards and to the right.
