To determine which of the statements is true regarding Dr. Bob's computerized records being damaged by a power surge, we need to consider the scenario from a general perspective.
A power surge is an unexpected increase in electrical voltage that can cause damage to electronic devices. In this case, Dr. Bob's computerized records were damaged due to a power surge.
a) Statement a) "Dr. Bob is not at fault" cannot be determined solely based on the given information. It is possible that Dr. Bob is not at fault if he had taken reasonable precautions to protect his computerized records from power surges.
b) Statement b) "Dr. Bob is at fault" cannot be determined solely based on the given information. Fault cannot be attributed until more details about Dr. Bob's actions or lack thereof in protecting the records are known.
c) Statement c) "The records custodian, but not Dr. Bob, will be liable." This statement assumes that Dr. Bob is not responsible for safeguarding his own records, but rather, it is the duty of the records custodian. However, without additional information about the specific responsibilities and agreements between Dr. Bob and the custodian, we cannot conclusively determine liability.
d) Statement d) "Dr. Bob is at fault unless he had proper surge protection devices in place." This statement implies that Dr. Bob would be at fault if he did not have proper surge protection. However, as mentioned earlier, fault cannot be definitively assigned without more context.
In summary, based solely on the given information, none of the statements a), b), c), or d) can be determined as true or false. Further details about Dr. Bob's actions, responsibilities, and agreements are necessary to assess who may be at fault or liable for the damaged records.
