Disk Scheduling

Consider the following five disk access requests of the form (request id, cylinder number) that are present in the disk scheduler queue at a given time. (P, 155), (Q, 85), (R, 110), (S, 30), (T, 115) Assume the head is positioned at cylinder 100. The scheduler follows Shortest Seek Time First scheduling to service the requests. Which one of the following statements is FALSE?

Consider a hard disk with 16 recording surfaces (0-15) having 16384 cylinders (0-16383) and each cylinder contains 64 sectors (0-63). Data storage capacity in each sector is 512 bytes. Data are organized cylinder-wise and the addressing format is <cylinder no., surface no., sector no.>. A file of size 42797 KB is stored in the disk and the starting disk location of the file is <1200, 9, 40>. What is the cylinder number of the last sector of the file, if it is stored in a contiguous manner?

An application loads 100 libraries at startup. Loading each library requires exactly one disk access. The seek time of the disk to a random location is given as 10 ms. Rotational speed of disk is 6000 rpm. If all 100 libraries are loaded from random locations on the disk, how long does it take to load all libraries? (The time to transfer data from the disk block once the head has been positioned at the start of the block may be neglected.)
