Determine the size of memory needed for CD recording of a piece of music, which lasts for 26 minutes, is done with a 20-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) in stereo (2 channels), at the rate of 44.1 kSa/s, with the compression factor 6 (allow 10% error margin).

the size of memory needed for the CD recording is 28.7 MB

Explanation:

so in the case of stereo, the bitrate is;

⇒ 26 × 60 × 44.1 × 10³ × 2

=   137592 × 10³  

for 10 bit

⇒ 137592 × 10³ × 10

= 1375920 × 10³ bits

now divide by 8 (convert to bytes)

⇒ (1375920 × 10³) / 8

= 171,990,000 BYTE

divide by 1000 (convert to kilobytes)

= 171,990,000 / 1000

= 171,990 KILOBYTES

now Given that, the compression ratio is 6      

so  

171,990 / 6

= 28665 KB

we know that. 1 MB = 1000 KB

x MB = 28665 KB

x MB = 28665 / 1000

⇒ 28.665 MB ≈ 28.7 MB

Therefore the size of memory needed for the CD recording is 28.7 MB

answer:

try looking it up that is always
