Short answer Questions:
1. Describe the difference between internal and external computer
hardware.
Answer- Internal computer hardware is the stuff you can't normally see
or touch, like the brain (CPU) and memory of the computer. External
hardware are the parts you can interact with, like the monitor, keyboard,
and mouse.
2. Give an example of application software and system software.
Answer:- Application software is like a toolbox with different tools for
specific tasks. For example, a word processor helps you write documents,
and a photo editor lets you edit pictures. System software is like the
manager of the computer, making sure everything works smoothly. The
operating system is an example of system software.

Short answer Questions:
1. Briefly explain how the internet allows you to connect to a website like
https://www.google.com/.
Answer- The internet is like a giant network of connected computers around the
world. When you type "https://www.google.com/" into your browser, it's like asking a
phonebook (called a DNS server) for Google's address. The DNS server then translates
the website name into a special code called IP address - that computers can
understand. Then, the information from the website is sent back to your computer and
displayed on your screen.
2. What is the purpose of a DNS server?
Answer:- A DNS server is like a phonebook for the internet. When you type a website
address, the DNS server translates that name into a special code (IP address) that
computers can understand. This helps your computer find the right website.

Short answer Questions:
1. In your own words, explain what an IP address is and why it's
important.
Answer- An IP address is like a unique house number for each device
on the internet. It's a special code that helps computers identify and
communicate with each other. Imagine millions of houses on the
internet - the IP address helps find the specific house (computer)
you're trying to reach
2. What is the World Wide Web (WWW)?
Answer: The World Wide Web (WWW) is a part of the internet that
allows users to access information through interconnected web pages.
Imagine it as a giant library with information organized into linked
documents.
