Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A type of OS which would be suited to use inside aeroplane autopilot systems or nuclear reactors
A
Distributed
B
Multi-tasking
C
Embedded
D
Real-time
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -aircraft control system is a hard real-time system, as a single flight error might be fatal.

Detailed explanation-2: -Real-time systems are used when there are rigid time requirements like missile systems, air traffic control systems, robots etc. So, now it can be easily inferred that RTOS is an operating system that supports real-time applications by providing the correct result and, that too, within the deadline required.

Detailed explanation-3: -Planes; can have three different types of autopilot software: one-axis, two-axis, and three-axis. The next-generation aircraft can be guided by improved three-axis autopilots. New generation autopilots can also direct the yaw by controlling the rudder along with rotation and reclining movements.

Detailed explanation-4: -Real-Time Operating System This time interval is called response time. Real-time systems are used when there are time requirements are very strict like missile systems, air traffic control systems, robots etc.
