Yes
2 sides

Sectors per track?
Nine
Sector size 512K

bitrate?
What do you mean?

Actually, I would hope it was 512 bytes per sector.
Thinking about it, surely it is 18 sectors per track?
0.5 (K) x 18 x 80 = 720K
Not sure about what they want to know about bitrate - presumably the
speed of transfer the QL can cope with!
