Which problem occurs when software applications continuously allocate memory space in RAM but fail to release it back to the operating system after finishing their tasks?
Explanation:
A memory leak happens when a program allocates memory space from the system heap but fails to free it up after use, reducing available RAM until the system slows down or crashes.
Explanation:
Secondary storage refers to non-volatile storage that is not directly accessible by the CPU, such as hard disks, SSDs, and optical discs. RAM and cache are primary storage; registers are internal to CPU.
