Videotape works by magnetically encoding visual and audio signals onto a plastic tape coated with a magnetic material. When recording, an electromagnetic head converts the audio and video signals into magnetic patterns that are stored on the tape. During playback, these patterns are read by the playback head, which converts them back into electrical signals to reproduce the original audio and video. The tape moves past the heads at a constant speed, allowing for sequential access to the recorded content.
