The Palghat Gap (or Palakkad Gap), a region about 30 km wide in the southern part of the Western Ghats in India, is lower than the hilly terrain to its north and south. The exact reasons for the formation of this gap are not clear. It results in the neighbouring regions of Tamil Nadu getting more rainfall from the South West monsoon and the neighbouring regions of Kerala having higher summer temperatures.
What can be inferred from this passage?
The Palghat gap is caused by high rainfall and high temperatures in southern Tamil Nadu and Kerala
The regions in Tamil Nadu and Kerala that are near the Palghat Gap are low-lying
The low terrain of the Palghat Gap has a significant impact on weather patterns in neighbouring parts of Tamil Nadu and Kerala
Higher summer temperatures result in higher rainfall near the Palghat Gap area

A pennant is a sequence of numbers, each number being 1 or 2. An n-pennant is a sequence of numbers with sum equal to n. For example, (1,1,2) is a 4-pennant. The set of all possible 1-pennants is {(1)}, the set of all possible 2-pennants is {(2), (1,1)}and the set of all 3-pennants is {(2,1), (1,1,1), (1,2)}. Note that the pennant (1,2) is not the same as the pennant (2,1). The number of 10- pennants is ______________.

Question : 64
Given the following schema:
employees(emp-id, first-name, last-name, hire-date,dept-id, salary)
departments(dept-id, dept-name, manager-id, location-id)
You want to display the last names and hire dates of all latest hires in their respective departments in the location ID 1700. You issue the following query:
SQL>SELECT last-name, hire-date
FROM employees
WHERE (dept-id, hire-date) IN
(SELECT dept-id, MAX(hire-date)
FROM employees JOIN departments USING(dept-id)
WHERE location-id =1700
GROUP BY dept-id);
What is the outcome?
It executes but does not give the correct result.
It executes and gives the correct result.
It generates an error because of pairwise comparison.
It generates an error because the GROUP BY clause cannot be used with table joins in a subquery.

Consider two processors \(P_1\) and \(P_2\) executing the same instruction set. Assume that under identical conditions, for the same input, a program running on \(P_2\) takes 25% less time but incurs 20% more CPI (clock cycles per instruction) as compared to the program running on \(P_1\). If the clock frequency of \(P_1\) is 1GHZ, then the clock frequency of \(P_2\) (in GHz) is ______.
