(C). 1 and 3
(D). 2 and 4 Note : Go through the following passage carefully and select the correct answer of five (5) questions given below (Question no. 36 to 40) : PASSAGE Memory is a cognitive ability to encode, store and retreive information from the environment. According to information theory, the amount of information per item is simply the logarithm (to the base 2) of the number of choices. George Miller in 1956 suggested that human ability to process information is magical number 7±2. It is therefore possible to calculate the number of 'bits' of information that a subject can hold when he correctly reports 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 or 9 digits. For example, each digit is drawn from 10 equally likely alternatives and therefore each decimal digit contains 3.32 bits of information (23 32=10). Similarly each binary digit (0, 1) contains 1 bit of information (21=2). Each english alphabet contains 4.7 bits of information (24 7=26). Therefore from 'information theory' point of view, if the span of memory of a subject for decimal digit is 7, then he stores 3.32x7=27 bits of information approximately. 'Bit' which is contraction of 'binary digit' is the amount of information needed to distinguish between two equally likely alternatives. Thus N bits is the number of 'bits' required to distinguish among 2N equally likely alternatives. This measurement of information contained in any given stimulus was initially propounded by Shanon and Weaver.

Right Answer:

38. Measurement regarding the amount of information contained in a given stimulus was proposed by :

(D). 20 bits of information
Right Answer:

40. 'Bit' being contraction of 'binary digit' 4 'bits' is the number of bits which distinguish 0 number of equally likely alternatives, where 0 is equal to :
