Answer: Option A. -> UNIVAC
Answer: (a)
The UNIVAC I (Universal Automatic Computer I) was the first commercial computer produced in the United States. It was designed principally by J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly, the inventors of the ENIAC.
It was the first computer designed for business and administrative use with fast execution of relatively simple arithmetic and data transport operations, as opposed to the complex numerical calculations required of scientific computers.

Answer: Option A. -> Microwaves
Answer: (a)
Microwaves are radio waves, while the rest three are some form of cables.
Coaxial cable: a kind of copper cable used between the community antenna and user homes and businesses;
Optical fiber: a flexible, transparent fibre made of glass or plastic; and
Twisted pair cable: a type of wiring in which two conductors of a single circuit are twisted together for the purposes of cancelling out electromagnetic interference (EMI) from external sources.
