Processor's speed of a computer is measured in Correct Answer Hertz

CPU speed is the central factor in a computer's performance. And this CPU speed depends on the processor in the CPU chip. In a computer, clock speed refers to the number of pulses per second generated by an oscillator that sets the tempo for the processor. Clock speed is usually measured in Hertz (Hz).

 

But now-a-days, a pure processor's performance is measured in MIPS (Millions of Instructions Per Second). As here in the question, how a processor's speed is measured is asked and it is Hertz. 

 

Hence, Processor's speed of a computer is measured in Hertz(Hz) [MHz, GHz].

Study the two cases and answer in terms of relation between the two cases Case 1: The average speed of the bike is \(3\frac{3}{4}\) times the average speed of the bus. A car covers 720 km in 10 hours. How much distance (in km) will a bike cover in 50 minutes if the speed of the bus is half of the speed of the car? Case 2: The average speed of bike is \(1\frac{2}{5}\) times the average speed of the car. A bus covers 441 km in 7 hours. How much distance (in km) will a bike cover in 45 minutes if the speed of the car is twice the speed of the bus?
The speed of six bikes B1, B2, B3, B4, B5 and B6 has been compared. The speed of the B6 exceeds just three bikes. No two bikes have the same speed. The speed of B4 is more than that of B2 but less than that of B6. The speed of B3 is not less than that of B5. The speed B2 is not minimum. If the speed of B5 is not less than that of B2, then which of the following pair of bikes has more speed than that of B4?

A particular parallel program computation requires 100 sec when executed on a single processor. If 40% of this computation is inherently sequential (i.e. will not benefit from additional processors), then theoretically best possible elapsed times of this program running with 2 and 4 processors, respectively, are
