A hub is a device that transmits data out all interfaces expect the incoming interface. If you have an incoming frame from fa0/1, that frame will be sent out all other ports on the hub. When those frames reach the NIC of the PC's, they will discard it if it is not destined for their MAC address.

Bridges send information (data) to the specified destination, whereas hubs and repeaters do not.
How many collision domain in a hub?
Hubs are not collision domains but a networking device. Hubs have single collision domain that makes them very undesirable for modern networks.
What developments has contributed most of the digital revolution?
social networks . or The internet computer networks
What is the most common bridge used to connect two dissimilar networks?
The most common types of bridges are the Beam and Arch Bridges.
