#### Computer Graphics MCQ Question 1:

The equation of sphere is x2 + y2 + z2 + x + y - 2 = 0, its radius is

1. √5/2
2. 5/2
3. √5
4. √5/3

Option 1 : √5/2

#### Computer Graphics MCQ Question 1 Detailed Solution

Concept:

The general equation of sphere is given as:

x2 + y2 + z2 + 2ux + 2vy + 2wz + d = 0  ----(1)

centre at (-u, -v, -w) and

radius $$r = √ {{u^2} + {v^2} + {w^2} - d}$$ ---(2)

Calculation:

Given:

x2 + y2 + z2 + x + y - 2 = 0

Compare given equation with equation (1)

x+ y2 + z2 + 2ux + 2vy + 2wz + d = 0

u = -0.5, v = -0.5, w = 0, d = -2

Radius can be calculated from equation (2)

$$= √ {{{\left( { - \frac{1}{2}} \right)}^2} + {(\frac{-1}{2})^2} + {{\left( {0} \right)}^2} + 2}$$

= √5/2

#### Computer Graphics MCQ Question 2:

2. Flic Format (FLI/FLC)
3. Quick time (QT/Moov)
4. MPEG (.mpg)

#### Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : Amiga (SGI)

#### Computer Graphics MCQ Question 2 Detailed Solution

The correct answer is option 1.

Concept:

Animation:

Animation is a technique that manipulates figures to make them appear to move. Images in traditional animation are hand-drawn or painted on translucent celluloid sheets before being captured and presented on film.

The majority of animations today are created using computer-generated images (CGI).

Different formats of animation are:

• MPEG-4 Face and Body Animation (MPEG-4 FBA) is part of MPEG-4 International Standard (ISO14496) dealing with animation of human or human-like characters.
• Quick time (QT/Moov) developed by Apple, the MOV file extension represents the QuickTime video format natively used in the QuickTime framework of Mac.
• Flic Format (FLI/FLC) is similar to animated GIFs. The FLIC animation format was originally developed by Autodesk for use with Autodesk Animator (FLI) and Autodesk Animator Pro (FLC).

Explanation:

Amiga (SGI) is not a format of animation. Silicon Graphics Incorporated (SGI) is best known for products used to develop computer graphics such as those used to create special effects and animation in motion pictures

Hence the correct answer is Amiga (SGI).
