Q: In contrast to the internal, or L1 type, the L2 type sits between the CPU and DRAM, but both L1 and L2 are made of high-speed SRAM for the memory type. This disk type actually uses main memory, but stores information in a memory buffer. The original Pentium processor had a 16 kilobyte one of these built into it. FTP, name this high-speed storage mechanism that keeps frequently accessed data in a location separate from the main memory for rapid recall.

Q: One device named for this man is used in optical isolators and is governed in part by the Verdet constant. That device, known as his rotator, makes use of his eponymous effect, whereby ferromagnetic resonance leads to circular birefringence to change the polarization angle of light upon application of a magnetic field. One law named for him makes use of his eponymous constant, which has a value of about 96,000 Coulombs per mole. Another law named for him concerns the relationship between the time derivative of magnetic flux and the electromotive force it generates. For 10 points, identify this namesake of a law of induction and of the SI unit for capacitance.
