--explanation--

Unusually is an adverb used to describe something that happens more or less than what is normal or expected. On the other hand, unusual is an adjective that describes something that is not common or normal. For example:

• The server experienced an unusually high load today. – In this sentence, unusually relates to how high the load was (far beyond the normal).

• It was unusual for the server to slow down like that. – In this sentence, unusual refers to the situation. It does not modify a verb or an adjective.

A query is a question or request sent to a database to get information or perform an action. For example:

The application sent a query to the database to fetch user details. – This means the app asked the database for specific information.
