That sounds like a very basic understanding of binary. Computers do indeed work using an on-off method of rapidly transmitting data. Binary is the most effective method of sending data that humankind have yet discovered.

Why is data store in a computer in binary form?
because it is the only language a computer understands. The computer can only tell if a switch is on or off, and that is represented by a 1 or a 0
A computer only understand two things?
This is not correct a computer only understands on and off which is not the same as yes and no. A artificial intelligence type computer the like the IBM's Watson which performs cognitive computing can come up with alternative or best answer not just yes or no
What two things does a computer know?
A computer "knows" nothing but it only understands "1" or "0"(binary code)
What does it mean to say that a computer understands a program?
The only part of a program a computer understands is each instruction as it is presented to the instruction decoder. It understands the instruction by an intricately designed logic circuit and/or microprogram configured by a human computer hardware engineer. This engineer had to fully understand the instruction set of the machine to teach it to understand the instructions one at a time at runtime.
Why computer needs binarry?
the computer does not understands the numers and alphabets , it only recognizes 0 & 1, which is known as binary digits.
How computer can understand human?
Computer understands human by accepting instruction from them.
What are the 2 lan gauges that computer understands?

Could the timer be off on a computer and throw the system off?
If your system time is off, it only means that timestamps made by your computer will be wrong. This may or may not cause problems, depending on what the computer is used for.
Why computer understands binary language only?
All forms of data within a computer are based on digital circuits. A digital circuit can have exactly two states, one of "on" or "off". They are not able to represent intermediate values, such as "half-on" or "three-quarters off"; this would be known as an analog circuit. Since there are only two possible states for any single datum (called a "bit"), computers can only understand series of these bits ("bytes", "kilobytes", etc).
Why computer has only two states?
A computer has only 2 states because there is either power (1) or no power (0).
