2. Each statement below is either TRUE or FALSE. Choose the most appropriate one and enter your choice in the “OMR” answer sheet supplied with the question paper, following instructions therein. (1x10)
which you can send is 41 bytes.
2.2 In public key encryption, both the encryption
algorithm and encryption key is known to
everyone but the decryption key is known only
to the receiver.

communications model in which each party
has the same capabilities and either party can
initiate a communication session.

both FDMA and TDMA.
2.10 A Stop and wait protocol uses a sliding window of size 1.
