distinguish between physical addresses and logical address?

Answer Posted / george isange

Logical Addresses: Logical addresses are generated by the CPU.
When the program is executed the CPU
takes this layout image that the compiler made and hands
out some addresses (logical ones) to the ones generated from
the code.

Physical Addresses: The physical addresses are not generated
until after the CPU generates some set of logical addresses
(consisting of a base address and an offset). The logical
addresses go through the MMU or another device and somewhere
along the line the logical addresses are mapped to physical
RAM addresses.
