What is the main purpose of computer modelling in ICT?
To represent a real system mathematically and predict how it behaves in the future.
Give one example of how computer modelling is used in bridge and building design.
To test how a bridge or building would react to an earthquake or severe weather.
How can computer modelling help in weather forecasting?
It predicts the strength, direction, and impact of weather events like hurricanes or rainfall.
Why can’t models always recreate real systems with complete accuracy?
Because some variables and unexpected events cannot be included or predicted.
Mention one advantage and one limitation of using computer models.
Advantage: Saves time by testing scenarios virtually. Limitation: Results may be inaccurate if data or formulas are wrong.
