Boolean Logic and Logic Gates

What does binary representation rely on?

• Only two states of electricity

• The use of decimal systems

• Complex electrical circuits

• Multiple states of electricity

What is the primary reason for using binary in computers?

• It's easier to understand

• It allows for more data storage

• It minimizes signal issues

• It's faster than other systems

Who is credited with the development of Boolean Algebra?

• Isaac Newton

• George Boole

• Albert Einstein

• Aristotle

What fundamental operations does Boolean Algebra include?

• Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication

• NOT, AND, OR

• XOR, XNOR, NOR

• Division, Modulation, Integration

What does a NOT operation do to a boolean value?

• Changes it to the opposite value

• Combines it with another value

• Leaves it unchanged

• None of the above

What does a logic gate do?

• Increases the speed of computations

• Stores data in memory

• Controls the flow of electricity

• Converts binary to decimal

How many inputs does an AND operation take?

• Two

• One

• Three

• It varies

What is the output of an OR operation when both inputs are false?

• Undefined

• True

• False

• Varies

What distinguishes an XOR operation from a regular OR operation?

• XOR outputs true only if both inputs are false

• XOR outputs false if both inputs are true

• XOR outputs true only if both inputs are true

• XOR operates with more than two inputs

Why is abstraction important in computer engineering?

• It simplifies the design process

• It reduces the cost of components

• It increases the speed of development

• All of the above
