An 8 KB, 4 way set associative cache memory has 16 sets (S₀ to S₁₅), size of the physical memory is 1 GB and smallest addressable unit is byte. The word address of physical memory (1F320945)₁₆ maps to the set number 'S_K' of the cache memory. Then 'K' value is _________.

Consider a disk pack with a seek time of 5 m.sec and rotation speed of 3000 RPM. It has 100 sectors/track and 1 K.Bytes/sector. A file contains 600 sectors stored in the disk. Assume that every sector access requires one seek time, one average rotational delay and data (RD/WR) transfer time. The total time needed to read entire file (in milli seconds) is _______.
