Is binary used in telephones?
All electronic devices use digital communications, which is binary.
What is the important of binary systems in computer?
All information on computers (and other electronic as well as most optical storage devices) is stored and processed in binary form. This may be bits that are either magnetised or not magnetised in electronic storage, or pits and bands in optical devices. This one-or-the-other is a means of coding information in a binary fashion.
Why domcomputers use binary number system instead of decimal number system?
Because it's much, much easier to design electronic two-way switches that electronic ten-way switches. A two-way switch leads to binary.
The technology of storing and reading only two states are called?
Binary computation.
Why is binary used to represent numbers in electronic devices?
because when a man loves a man as much as ross wilson does then well its ether a one or a 0 in the bedroom if you get what i mean
What is The largest number that a set of 10 binary light switches describe?
1,024 is the highest number 10 digits in binary can describe
Why is digital electronics preferred for computation?
Digital electronics deals with binary number system and the digital system can easily understand binary number system so processing is easy . no any more level like analog so chances of error reduce, very high speed of operation. These devices also require low power for proper operation.
What number system did the first electronic computer use?
Binary
2 state devices in a computer?
Two-state devices mean 0 or 1 and they are called binary.
Why most all in digital be from binary?
Because the switches that are used are usually on/off switches. Notice: on + off = two settings. Binary = Two digits. To get something digital and non-binary (for example, trinary) you would need a switch that can be "on", "off", and "sort of on". In addition, you wold need logic gates that support this "sort of on" setting.
What electronic device converts decimal numbers to binary numbers?
a gps.
Why did early computer engineers choose a base-2 counting system as the basis of their machines?
The binary number system is very easy to equate to the way how all electronic devices work - two discrete values: on and off.
