2. Suppose a computer using direct-mapped cache has 2³² bytes of byte-addressable main memory and a cache of 1024 blocks, where each cache block contains 32 bytes.

a) How many blocks of main memory are there?

b) what is the format of a memory address as seen by the cache; that is, what are the sizes of the tag, block, and offset fields?

c) To which cache block will the memory adress 0x000063FA map?
