In case if it is full duplex, even then will we have 10 mbps, as a switch tries to provide full bandwidth to each user?

This according to the Switch manages the bandwidth to 10mbps to each user. Its like hub provide 1mbps to PC but switch provide 10 mbps to server.

What is the answer if it is full duplex?

However, with half-duplex, it is shared access CSMA/CD. Since only one person can successfully transmit at one time, it is still 10 MB.

Switch provides the bandwidth of 10mbps to each node however hub divides it to 10 users by 1 mbps.

So when switch is connected to server, bandwidth from each host to the server will be 10 mbps i.e. Hub provide 1mbps to PC but switch provide 10 mbps to server.
