B) 9 pts Suppose an automatic password cracking program takes an average of 10 minutes to crack one password that has 10,000 possible combinations. (This means it would take 20 minutes if there were 20,000 possible passwords and 30 minutes if there were 30,000 possible passwords). the a) 3 pts What is the maximum length of time the program would need to be able to crack a password of 8-character length made of only one number and seven lower-case letters? b) 6 pts What is the maximum amount of time the program would need to be able to crack a password of 12-character length that includes at least one capital, at least one number, and at least one special symbol chosen from @,#, $?
