question 41 of 73
harmonis workstation is overheating. she decides to open the workstation and clean any accumulated dust to see if it helps with the overheating issue.
which of the following can harmoni safely do to remove dust? (select two.)
□ use a spread vacuum to clean dust from all hardware components.
□ increase the power supply to enable cleaning.
□ use a lint - free cloth and cleaning solvent to remove all dust accumulation.
□ use short bursts of compressed air to clean delicate components.
□ use a continuous stream of compressed air to clean all components.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option for safe removal of dust (a common overheating cause due to accumulation):

Analyzing each option:

• Option 1: Use a spread vacuum to clean dust from all hardware components

A spread (or standard) vacuum can effectively and safely remove dust from hardware. Vacuums designed for electronics (or with proper precautions) avoid static discharge risks here.

• Option 2: Increase the power supply to disable cleaning

Increasing power supply is irrelevant to cleaning and could damage components. Eliminate this.

• Option 3: Use a lint - free cloth and cleaning solvent to remove all dust accumulation

Cleaning solvents are risky for electronics (can damage circuits/coatings). Dust is best removed by dry methods (like vacuum or compressed air for stubborn parts), not solvents. Eliminate this.

• Option 4: Use short bursts of compressed air to clean delicate components

Short bursts of compressed air are safe for delicate parts (like fans, circuit boards) as they avoid excessive pressure that could damage components. This is a standard safe method.

• Option 5: Use a continuous stream of compressed air to clean all components

A continuous stream of compressed air can generate too much pressure, potentially damaging delicate components (like bending fan blades, dislodging small parts). Eliminate this.

Answer:

A. Use a spread vacuum to clean dust from all hardware components
D. Use short bursts of compressed air to clean delicate components
