Information Encoding
6)
How many bits does the following text occupy? Computer Science = Automatic Information
Información=información=automático
37 characters * 8 bits = 296 bits
7)
How much space will a text document that has 5 million approximately take up?
characters? Express the result in MB.
8)
Escribe en binario los números del 1 al 9.
9)
Pasa a binario los siguientes números: 35, 140, 700 y 2000.
35=100011
140=10001100
700=1010111100
10)
Convert the binary numbers to decimal:
1 =1
10 =2
100 =4
1000 8
10000 =16
100000 =32
=64 we observe that these are the most recognized storage units in GB
11)
Pasa a decimal los números binarios 1001, 110110, 100111, 110111.
1001 =9
110110 =54
100111 =39
110111 =55
12)
A song saved in mp3 is transmitted at 128kbps. How many megabytes does it occupy if
The song lasts 3 minutes and 45 seconds.
(Remember that in this case k=1000).
13)
Cuánto dura una canción mp3 grabada a 128kbps que ocupa 4Mb.
4*1000=4000kb/128kbps=31 min 25 sec
14)
