A. B. C. D.

C.

In a 2U (or 2RU) rack mount server, "U" stands for "rack unit," which is a standard measurement used to describe the height of a rack-mounted piece of equipment. One rack unit (1U) is equivalent to 1.75 inches (4.45 centimeters) in height.

Therefore, a 2U rack mount server would have a height of 2 x 1.75 inches, or 3.5 inches (8.89 centimeters).

So the answer is C. 3.5 inches (.089 meter).
