Question 1 Report

(a) State two different types of monitor used with computers. [2]

(b) Describe two advantages of using an LED monitor compared to an older CRT monitor. [2]

(c) Give two factors a user should consider when choosing a monitor. [2]

Answer Details

(a) Two types of monitor used with computers:

  • LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) monitor [1]
  • LED (Light Emitting Diode) monitor [1]

(b) Two advantages of using an LED monitor compared to an older CRT monitor:

  • LED monitors are much thinner and lighter than CRT monitors, taking up significantly less desk space and being easier to mount on walls. [1]
  • LED monitors consume significantly less electrical power than CRT monitors, reducing energy costs and heat output. [1]

(c) Two factors a user should consider when choosing a monitor:

  • The screen resolution, which determines the clarity and detail of the image displayed. Higher resolution means more pixels and sharper images. [1]
  • The screen size, which should be appropriate for the user's tasks (such as graphic design needing a larger screen) and the available desk space. [1]
