Answer 1

1. The importance of a network cable is that it connects computers or devices to each other, a network or a router enabling transfer of data or information.

2. P2P knowledge can be used when sharing files or massive data that doesn't require one main administrator. E.g when playing games online, sharing videos and other media. In such situations any computer can act as a client or server. During torrent downloads there's a seeder and a leecher.

3. Importance of computer network is that it enables device sharing between users as users on the same network can share files between them or share hardware like printers connected on a network.

4. For instance the use of LAN(local area connection) can connect all computers in an office or a company facilitating sharing of data between computers or users.

For network devices a printer is a good example to demonstrate sharing of files and data between users.
