First it needs an encoder that converts information from what we call decimal form to binary, and then in order for the information to appear on the screen, you need a decoder that takes binary and converts it back to decimal.

Explain how computers are able to take the words entered on a keyboard and translate them into digital information?
A keyboard is an input device. Below the keys is a key matrix, or circuit board. When you press a key you complete the circuit for that key. They keyboard then sends the information either through a wire or wirelessly to the computer. The computer then takes the information and decides how to use it. Depending on the Operating system or running applications the computer decides how to use the information.
How do keyboards translate digital information?
by putting a battery
Computers are able to take the words entered on a keyboard and translate them into digital information?
Answer - Each key on the keyboard is assigned a binary equivalent ( ANCII Standands ) when you hit a key on the keyboard the CPU translates it into binary, stores it and then translates it back to decimal to put the corresponding letter on the monitor.

How words entered on keyboard and translate to digital information?
When a key is pressed it sends an electrical sigal (a pulse of electricity means 1 and no electricity means 0) to the CPU (or was it a microchip?). The CPU translates it and puts it on the monitor.

What is the difference between digital computers and hybrid computers?
Digital computers are purely digital, i.e. they use digital(electronic) means to process data. Hybrid computers conversely use both digital and analog technologies.
Why are the fourth generation computers called digital computers?
Because the first, second, and third generation computers were also digital computers.
Information or data is transmitted in digital computers by voltages that are switched on or off?
voltages must be on before data information can be transmitted in digital computers and not so when using the internet, because the message is transmitted at the slightest glimpse of power source. does not need proper voltage to carry out transmission
What do electronic computer manufacturers produce?
Included in this industry are digital computers, analog computers, and hybrid digital/analog computers.
