This mechanism, when activated, temporarily halts the main program in order to process a high-priority task.

What is an interrupt?

100

Relating to probability, this number represents an event that will occur with absolute certainty.

What is 1?

100

This quantity equals mass times acceleration.

What is force?

200

An arrangement of either 8, 16 or 32 parallel GPIO pins act as a way for a microprocessor to connect to outside components.

What is a port?

200

In probability theory, this term describes the event that occurs if at least one of two events happens.

What is the union?

200

This physical quantity measures how quickly work is done or energy is transferred.

What is power?

300

This company is the world's largest provider of processor IP (Intellectual Property) licenses, and holds 99% of the shares in the smartphone chip market.

What is ARM?

300

This mistaken belief occurs when someone thinks a number is “due” to appear after not being rolled for a long time.

What is the gambler's fallacy?

300

A skateboarder stands at the top of a ramp. He is about to descend. This type of energy is stored due to the skateboarder's position relative to the ground.

What is gravitational potential energy?

400

This mechanism ensures that when there is no signal, a pin in a microcontroller will default at a high voltage (1).

What is a pull-up resistor?

400

When flipping a fair coin 10 times, the probability of getting exactly 5 heads is calculated using this distribution.

What is the binomial distribution?

400

When a book rests on a table, gravity pulls it downward while this support force from the table pushes upward.

What is the normal force?

500

This measurement defines how many times a communication signal changes state (voltage, frequency or phase) per second.

What is the baud rate?

500

In a continuous probability distribution, the probability of observing any single exact value is this.

What is 0?
