1 and 0 are the only two binary digits. In different scenarios they can represent True and False, On and Off, Yes and No, Open and Closed or any such logical pairs.

What is binary fision?
This is a form of asexual reproduction where an organism splits in two.
How many states does a switch have?
A switch has two states, on and off.
A hazard true or false -Half-adder is a computer circuit capable of adding three binary bits one of which is a CARRY from a previous addition?
It is false. A half adder is a computer circuit capable of adding two binary bits
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).
What are the two subcomponents of the CPU and explain the function of each?
computer hardware
States concerned in binary representation?
A single binary digit can represent one of two states: 1 or 0. These are often renamed as "true and false" or "on and off."
What two numbers represent a binary digit?
The only two numbers that represent a binary digit are 0 and 1
What is the decimal equivalent to 1011 0111?
11 and 7 (if you mean two separate 4-digit binary numbers) or 227 as one 8-digit binary number.
What is a BIT in relation to binary code?
A BIT is a Binary digIT. Very small saving unit.Having two values,(0,1).
Why binary numbers need more places for counting?
Since a binary digit has only two possible values, each digit bears less information than in decimal, where each digit can have ten different values.
What does the acronym bits stand for?
It's a contraction of the two words binary digit
The word bit is made by combining what two words?
Binary digit
What is binary numbar What is decimal number?
A binary number is simply a way of representing a number in such a way that the place value of each digit is two times that of the digit to its right.Similarly, a decimal number is simply a way of representing a number in such a way that the place value of each digit is ten times that of the digit to its right.
How many different values can be represented in 6 binary digits and why?
With 6 binary digits, you have 26 different possibilities. This is because there are two possibilities for each digit, and each digit is independent of the other digits - so you just multiply the possibilities for each digit together.
What is a binary digit?
A synchronous or asynchronous stream of signal consisting only of zero(no voltage) and one(position voltage) is called binary data stream. They may be bytestream, wordstream and so on. Sending unique binary pulses periodically create a binary digital signal. For example, you want to pass the number 346F5A through binary digital signal it will be 001101000110111101011010 Break it 0011-0100-0110-1111-0101-1010 you will find the binary equivalents of each digit. This example is very simple. Usually complex form of data are sent to and fro through data lines, be it the SATA cable of your hard drive, the USB port or the Internet.
What is a binary numeral system?
A binary numeral system is system for representing numbers in which a radix of 2 is used - so that each digit in a binary numeral may have either of two different values.
The word bit derives from the shortening of which two words?
"Binary" and "Digit", coined by John Tukey in 1946.
