1[blank_start]EMP[blank_end] means electromagnetic pulse.
- AEMP
2The three types of EMP are; [blank_start]Electrostatic discharge[blank_end], [blank_start]Electromagnetic[blank_end] interference, and [blank_start]Radio Frequency interference[blank_end].
- ARadio Frequency interference
- BElectrostatic discharge
- CElectromagnetic
3We can use an anti-static [blank_start]bag[blank_end], an anti-static/ESD [blank_start]mat[blank_end], and an anti-static/ESD [blank_start]wrist wrap[blank_end] to prevent EMP.
- Abag

5What is the first step in the troubleshooting theory?
- AIdentify the problem; Question the user, Enquire regarding environmental or infrastructure changes. Review system and application logs.
- BEstablish a theory of probable cause (question the obvious);
- CTest the theory to determine cause; If theory isn’t confirmed, re-establish new theory. Escalate the issue, if necessary.
- DEstablish a plan of action, to resolve the problem and implement the solution;
- EDocument findings, actions, and outcomes;
- FVerify full system functionality and, if applicable, implement preventative strategies; e.g. would you mind testing it to see if everythings okay? Preventative strategies can range from a casual reminder, to more serious strategies, like documentation, new company policies etc.

21The [blank_start]motherboard[blank_end], contains the principal components of a computer or other device, with connectors for other circuit boards to be slotted into
- Amotherboard
22[blank_start]RAM[blank_end] is the physical hardware inside a computer that temporarily stores data, serving as the computer's "working" memory
- ARAM
23The [blank_start]CPU[blank_end] is the primary component of a computer that processes instructions. It runs the [blank_start]operating system[blank_end] and applications, constantly receiving input from the user or active software programs. It processes the data and produces output, which may stored by an application or displayed on the screen.
- ACPU
- Boperating system
24An [blank_start]expansion slot[blank_end] is a socket on the motherboard that is used to insert an expansion card (or circuit board), which provides additional features to a computer such as video, sound, advanced graphics, Ethernet or memory
- Aexpansion slot
25[blank_start]M.2[blank_end] is a form factor for SSDs (solid-state drives) that’s shaped like a stick of gum. These SSDs are generally faster but more expensive than traditional, 2.5-inch SSDs.
- AM.2
26A computer will have a [blank_start]CPU[blank_end], RAM, Mass storage, and an operating system
- ACPU
- BM.2SSD
- CMOTHERBOARD
27The [blank_start]kernel[blank_end] is core part of the operating system, that handles the primary [blank_start]memory[blank_end] management. If somebody wants to start a program, its the [blank_start]kernel[blank_end] that decides where that’s going to sit in your [blank_start]RAM[blank_end].
- Akernel
- Bmemory
