By using an analog to digital conversion. To achieve this, samples of the waveform are taken at regular intervals. The human ear is capable of hearing audio frequencies up to 20 KHz, thus the sampling frequency needs to be at least twice as high in order to reproduce the highest frequencies without introducing too much distortion. Typically, samples are taken at a rate of at least 44,100 samples per second per channel for CD quality audio.
The amplitude of each sample is then scaled and converted to a signed integer. CD quality audio uses 16 bits per channel thus the waveform amplitudes are scaled to integers in the range -32,767 to +32,767. Thus CD quality stereo audio consumes 2 * 44,100 * 16 bits every second, which is 176,400 bytes per second. Thus 60 minutes of audio consumes approx. 605 MB.

How do you write a c program to convert binary to decimal by using while statement?
write a c++ program to convert binary number to decimal number by using while statement
How do you represent a negative number in Binary Coded Decimal?
All I know is that when a number is negative, you convert the decimal into binary and if it is negative you put 1111 before the binary digits.
What converts a binary signal to analog?
an encoder is used to convert the binary signals into analog signals. the binary signals are fed to encoder section. then these signals are get converted into its equivalent analog signals. Binary DAC.
After your ears convert sound waves into electrical signals where are the signals sent for interpretation?
The brain
What device converts sound waves to electric current?
Microphones will convert sound waves into electrical signals. An ear (i..e human ear) will also convert sound waves into electrical signals.
How does the ASCII and Unicode work How does it help the computer function?
They convert the signals from your keyboard into binary strings, so that your computer can process them.
What Part of a computer that plays music and data?
A computer can only produce sound if it contains the right hardware. These come in the forms of sound cards or sound chips. In most cases these devices only convert the sound data from digital to analogue signals - the computer itself reads the binary data and decodes it into a form understandable by humans.
How do you convert image to binary format?
To convert image to binary, you just have to convert image to binary. Hope this helps.
Is a speaker input device?
No, it is an output device. It outputs sound waves.
Systems that use Voice over Internet Protocol VoIP convert voice signals into for transmission over data networks?

How was Alexander Graham Bell's telephone is related to electricity or magnetism?
Telephones converts sound into electrical signals, and backwards. Speakers with dynamic-coil transdusers convert electrical signals into sound by using the properties of electromagnetism.
