If a query takes 13.8s on a one-core server, how many seconds would you expect it to take on a two-core server that uses interquery parallelism exclusively (assume linear speed-up).
A 2 core server is like two processes who are trying to split up the work among themselves to execute the query.
Hence, the query time will reduce by half, i.e., it will become 6.9 seconds.

Approximately how many nucleosomes would you expect to find in one of your nuclei? (Assume the cell is in G1)
You are HIRED and now the junior DBA says to you that they have a query that takes over 20 minutes to execute and it only returns 5 records. This query is vital to their business and they need you to fix it right now. The query is below They sit you down at a computer and show you the execution plan which shows: “FULL TABLE SCAN” on the Orders table. (SCAN is a linear search and SEEK is...
9. If a server and a host are 2500 Km apart and a 500 KB file is transmitted over the 784 Kbps channel linking the two devices and the size of each packet is 250 bytes: a. How many packets are transferred? b. Find the time that it takes to transmit one packet. 6pts. Find the time that it takes to transmit the entire file c. Assume the signal propagates at a speed of 2.4 x 108m/s.

If you just stand still on an escalator (moving stairway), it takes 20 seconds for it to carry you up one floor, about 5 meters. But if you walk up, you get to the top of the escalator in only 12 seconds. (a) How much work does the escalator do in lifting you up to the next floor, it you just stand there? (b) How much if you walk up the escalator? (c) Some people expect the answer in part...
Out of a population of 7.6 thousand mutual funds, how many would you expect would beat their benchmarks just by random chance all but one time out of 7 years? Assume probability of beating benchmark is 1/2.
Consider a distribution of the weights of 100 eighth-grade boys. How many modes would you expect for the distribution? Would you expect the distribution to be symmetric, left-skewed, or right-skewed? Choose the correct answer below. A. One mode; symmetric B. One mode; right-skewed C. Two modes; symmetric D. Two modes; right-skewed
Watching fireworks you note that it takes about .25 seconds for the sound to reach your eyes after seeing a burst, if you are directly underneath the launch point. a) How high in the air (in meters and feet) are the fireworks launched? Assume standard speed of sound. b) If, instead, you are watching the fireworks 1500ft away from launch point, how long does it take for the sound to reach you? Assume the fireworks reach same height as in...
