IG1 U1T5 Sound

What piece of hardware is used to sample a sound wave?

• Digital-analogue converter

• Wave synthesizer

• Microphone

• Analogue-digital converter

What does the bit rate of a sampled sound refer to?

• The number of bits used for 1 second of audio

• The number of bits used for every sample

• The final file size of the sampled sound

• The speed at which the sampled sound is played back

One factor that affects the quality of digital audio is the bit depth. What does this refer to?

• The number of bits used to store each sample

• The overall size of the sampled sound

• The number of bits needed for 1 second of audio

• The number of samples taken every second

Which of these are factors in determining the amount of storage needed for a digitally sampled sound? (select all that apply)

• The number of samples taken per second

• The bit depth per sample

• The length of the sampled sound

• The range of wave frequencies present in the sound

• The type of audio sampled (voice, music, etc)
