Each web page has a unique address, called URL that identifies its location on the network.
 4.      Differntiate between a web page and a home page.
 Ans.:- The defferent between a web page and a home page are:-
a) The WWW comprises a large collection of document called web page on the otherhand the first web page of a web site or web browser is called Home Page.

 b) An Absolute URL is Independent on the otherhand  a Relative URL is dependent.
c)  An Absolute URL are not easily portable on the otherhand  a Relative URL are easily protable.
 6. Explain the letter addressing system.
Ans:- The web address of any computer or network can be given using alphabets. This is called the letter addressing system and it is popularly known as the Domain Name System(DNS).

7. What are Web addresses?
 Ans:- The Internet has millions of computers attached to it. In order to communicate, every computer connected to the Internet has a unique address whose format is defined by the Internet Protocol(IP) addressing system. Every computer connected to the internet has its unique web address, without which it cannot be reached by other computers. Also called universal resource locator or Uniform Resource Locator (URL).
 8. What is the number addressing system?
Ans:- Every TCP/IP network requires a unique network number, and every host on a TCP/IP network requires a unique IP address. The number addressing system takes care of this. A numeric or IP address comprises four numbers, each less than 256, joined together. An IP address is a 32-bit number that uniquely identifies a network interface on a machine. IP addresses are written in decimal digits, formatted as four 8-bit fields, separated by periods. Each 8-bit field represents a byte of the IP address. The byte ranges from 0 to 255.
 9. How does the Internet work?
Ans:-  When data is passed from one computer system to another, it is broken up into pieces called packets using TCP. Each packet contains 1500 bytes or characters. IP adds the IP address of the sender and the destination to each packet so that it reaches the correct destination. The packets are passed from one network to another until they reach their destination. At the destination, TCP reassembles the packets into a complete message. If packets are garbled, a request is sent to the sender to resend them. 10.  Explain any three methods of Internet access.
 Ans:- The methods are:-
a)Dial-up:- It is a connection between the computer and the ISP with the help of a modem. Dial-up connection is a limited time-duration connection that uses a telephone line to connect to the ISP server. b)ISDN:- ISDN lines are used to transmit data over digital telephone lines.
 c)Broadband Service:- Broadband Internet access, often shortened to broadband, is a highdata-transmission rate Internet connection.

ALBERT EINSTEIN

                    ALBERT EINSTEIN Albert Einstein was born on 14 March 1879 in the German city of Ulm, without any indication that he was destined for greatness.

When he finally did learn to speak, he uttered everything twice. Einstein did not know what to do with other children, and his playmates called him "Brother Boring." So the youngster played by himself much of the time. He especially loved mechanical toys. Looking at his newborn sister, Maja, he is said to have said: "Fine but where are her wheels?" A headmaster once told his father that what Einstein chose as a profession wouldn't matter, because"he'll never make a success at anything." Einstein began learning to play the violin at the age of six, because his mother wanted him to;  he later became a violinist, m...
