Access time on a magnetic disk is the total time taken to read or write data, which consists of seek time, rotational latency, and transfer time. For example, if a disk has a seek time of 10 milliseconds (ms), a rotational latency of 5 ms (half the time of a 60 RPM disk), and a transfer time of 2 ms to read the data, the total access time would be 10 ms + 5 ms + 2 ms = 17 ms. This calculation helps in assessing the performance of the disk for data retrieval tasks.

How do you get a key for a 1984 gmc pickup truck?

It's hidden behind the rear number plate, held in place with a magnetic clip. You'll need to remove the number plate and then apply a strong magnetic field to release the keyholder. Any decent hardware store will be able to provide a suitable electromagnet once you explain what it's needed for.
