As we know that the sampling rate is two times of the highest
frequency (Nyquist theorm)
Sampling rate=2 Nyquist
fs=8000hz/8khz

You must sample at 2 x the rate of the analog signal (2 x the
analog signal frequency).

The Nyquist Therorem states that the lowest sampling rate has to
be equil to or greather than 2 times the highest frequency.
Therefore the sampling rate should be 400Hz or more.

Sampling rate is a defining characterstic of any digital signal.
In other words, it refers to how frequently the analog signal is
measured during the sampling process. Compact disks are recorded at
a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz.
