How many bits does it take to store a 3-minute song using an audio encoding method without compression that samples at the rate of 40,000 samples per second and has a bit depth of 16? what if it uses a compression scheme with a compression ratio of 5: 1?

a) 51,200 bits.  b) : 10,240 bits.

Explanation:

If we sample a 3 - minute song  at 40,000 samples per second, and we are told that each sample is represented by a combination of 16 bits, we can calculate the number of bits needed to store the song as follows:

N = 40,000 samples /sec . 16 bits /sample. 180 sec,. = 51,200 bits.

Now, if we compress the samples taken, after quantization, in a 5:1 relationship, this means that we will store only 1 of each 5 samples, essentially removing redundant information, so the number of bits needed after compresssion will be 51,200 / 5 = 10,240 bits.

It is interesting to note that if we apply the Sampling Theorem, that says that in order to be recoverable, a signal must be sampled at least two times during the shortest cycle, or at a frequency double than the highest frequency component in the signal, we can see that the signal is sampled at 20 Khz, which is usually the upper audible frequency limit.

explanation:

because they are scammers. our phones tells us when there are known scammers calling just so we can be informed. so basically they want to scam you. lol

whats the answer to this question
