10 Questions
What does a higher bit depth indicate in digitized sound?
More accurate sample
What is the recommended sampling rate according to the Nyquist-Shannon theorem for accurate sound reproduction?
Sampling rate ≥ 2 × max frequency
What is the primary purpose of lossy audio compression techniques?
Remove imperceptible sounds and reduce bit rate
What is the consequence of a sampling rate that is too slow in digitizing sound?
Inaccurate reproduction
How does a higher bit rate affect the quality and file size of audio?
Better quality and larger file size
What is the consequence of a sampling rate that is too fast in digitizing sound?
It leads to a large file size
How does higher bit depth affect the accuracy of a sample in digitized sound?
It results in a more accurate sample
What is the primary purpose of lossy audio compression techniques?
To reduce the file size by sacrificing some audio quality
What is the range of human hearing, as mentioned in the text?
20 Hz – 20 kHz
What does the Nyquist-Shannon theorem recommend for accurate sound reproduction?
Sampling rate ≥ 2 × max frequency
