What is code formatting?
There is no single format. Binary code is merely the representation of numeric information encoded in binary. Humans use the symbols 0 and 1 to symbolise the binary digits (bits), but computers have no notion of a number let alone the intelligence to interpret the difference between a 1 or a 0. However, binary information can be encoded in many different ways. In the early days of computers, the computer was programmed through a front panel of switches. The computer had several modes of operation which could be configured by turning these individual switches on or off. Once a configuration was set it could be committed to the computer's memory, which effectively copied the state of these switches to a much larger set of switches laid out in a large array, where each element in the array represented a separate instruction. Once all instructions were stored, they could be executed by copying them one after the other to the instruction register, another series of switches that actually set the mode of operation. By rapidly switching from one mode to the next, the computer was able execute a sequence of very simple instructions extremely quickly. In order to encode these instructions so that the programmer could configure the input switches correctly, the instructions were encoded in binary notation using 1s and 0s, where a 1 meant the switch was on while a 0 meant the switch was off. The early computers didn't have many instructions -- they were only capable of a handful of very simple operations -- so there were very few switches. With 4 switches we can configure the machine in exactly 16 different ways: 0000 0001 0010 0011 0100 0101 0110 0111 1000 1001 1010 1011 1100 1101 1110 1111 Each additional switch doubles the number of configurations thus if the computer has 17 to 32 instructions we would use at least 5 switches while 33 to 64 instructions would require at least 6 switches, and so on. Each binary digit (bit) represents an increasing power of 2 where the least significant bit represents 2^0, followed by 2^1, 2^2, 2^3 and so on. This is no different to decimal notation where each digit represents an increasing power of 10 (10^0, 10^1, 10^2, 10^3 and so on). Knowing this we can easily convert from binary to decimal, such that 1101 means (from least significant to most significant digit): 1 = 1x(2^0) = 1x1 = 1 0 = 0x(2^1) = 0x2 = 0 1 = 1x(2^2) = 1x4 = 4 1 = 1x(2^3) = 1x8 = 8 1+0+4+8 = 13 Thus 1101 is the binary equivalent of 13 decimal. If we say that 1101 represents a specific machine instruction, then we really mean instruction 13. What that instruction means to the machine depends on the machine itself -- it is a machine code and machine codes are always machine-dependent (only machines of the same type will understand what instruction 13 means). Since it represents a specific machine instruction then we call it an operation code, or an opcode for short. Opcode 13 may require operands (one or more inputs). For instance, if opcode 13 were one of the machine's move instructions, it will need two operands: a source and a destination. These must also be encoded in binary and these codes will either represent a memory address or a CPU register, depending on the operand types expected by the opcode. CPU registers are a bank of switches that are used to specify the inputs and outputs required by the instruction register (which is also a CPU register). Two special registers are used to keep track of the current and the next instruction. Normally, the next instruction is the one that immediately follows the current instruction in memory. However, if the current instruction is a jump instruction, the encoding in the next instruction register may change, thus allowing the computer to a make decision and possibly jump to the appropriate instruction code when the next instruction becomes the current instruction. Of course, today, we do not program machines through a series of front panel switches. But just as we can encode the state of these switches from a numeric binary notation, we can also convert to any other binary encoding. On magnetic media we use the flux transitions between positively and negatively charged particle clusters upon a ferromagnetic material. These transitions can be "read" by a computer and decoded into a series of alternating electrical impulses which can then be encoded within an array of accumulators with high or low electrical charges each of which can be maintained by a transistor that can also independently switch the state of the accumulator. There are no actual numbers inside a computer, of course, they are all merely the encoded representations of numbers that must be encoded, decoded and shunted from one location to another according to the machine's current opcode. For humans it is obviously easier to record the machine's "state" using numeric binary values, but this is merely an abstraction. The machine has no more concept of a number than it does of a what a human is. It is a machine -- it has no actual intelligence. It simply has a number of modes that we can configure, nothing more and nothing less. But because its native "language" is binary, we use numeric binary notation as a human convenience. It allows us to instruct the computer in the only language it knows -- including the instructions necessary to translate binary encoded information into information we can understand, whether it is decimal numbers, written words, a picture, a movie or a sound.
What does the term tapping mean?
"Tapping" means the sound of a light blow or knock. Words with similar meaning include rat-a-tat, rat-a-tat-tat, rat-tat. It is a word mimicking the sound of an action.
How many syllables are in the word plain?
"Plain" has one syllable and a long "a" vowel sound.
What property of sound waves is related to the amplitude of the waves?
The amplitude of a sound wave is related to its intensity, which determines the loudness of the sound. Sound waves with greater amplitude produce louder sounds, while sound waves with smaller amplitude produce softer sounds.
What determines the loudness of a sound wave?
The amplitude of a sound wave determines its loudness. Higher amplitude waves produce louder sounds, while lower amplitude waves produce quieter sounds. The intensity of the sound wave, which is related to the amplitude, also affects how loud a sound is perceived.
What kind of sound a low amplitude produce?
Low amplitude sound waves produce quieter sounds that are less intense and have lower volume. They are typically perceived as softer and less powerful compared to high amplitude sounds.
What amount of work done to produce a sound determines which property of sound waves?
The amount of work done to produce a sound determines the amplitude of a sound wave. Amplitude is the measure of the energy carried by a sound wave, with higher amplitudes corresponding to louder sounds.
How are sound volume and ampitde related?
Sound volume is subjective perception of a sound's intensity. Amplitude is the physical measure of a sound wave's magnitude. In general, higher amplitude sound waves produce louder volumes.
How does loudness of the amplitudes depend on the vibrations produced?
The loudness of sound is directly proportional to the amplitude of the vibrations produced. Higher amplitude vibrations produce louder sounds, while lower amplitude vibrations produce quieter sounds.
Why does a guitar string produce a louder sound if it is plucked harder?
the larger the amplitude at which something vibrates = the louder the sound. so by plucking a string harder, you're increasing the amplitude of the sound waves and thus increasing the sound volume
A sound waves amplitude corresponds to the sounds what?
Usually, people are asking as if there is just "the" amplitude in sound waves in air. The loudness perception of a sound is determined by the amplitude of the sound waves − the higher the amplitude, the louder the sound. Which amplitude of sound (sound amplitude) do you mean? There are: amplitude of particle displacement ξ, or displacement amplitude amplitude of sound pressure p or pressure amplitude amplitude of sound particle velocity v, or particle velocity amplitude amplitude of pressure gradient Δ p, or pressure gradient amplitude. Furthermore, think of the amplitude of the oscillation of a string. The maximum magnitude of the deflection of a wave is called amplitude. Look at link: "What is an amplitude?"
What is an objects that make high amplitude sound?
Musical instruments like drums, trombones, and trumpets can produce high amplitude sound. This type of sound is typically loud and carries a lot of energy due to the vibrations of the instrument.
What does the amplitude of a wave tell about a sound?
The amplitude of a wave determines the loudness of a sound. A larger amplitude indicates a louder sound, while a smaller amplitude corresponds to a quieter sound.
What does the amplitude of a sound wave indicate?
The amplitude of a sound wave indicates the intensity or loudness of the sound. A larger amplitude corresponds to a louder sound, while a smaller amplitude corresponds to a softer sound.
Which of these associated with the loudness of sound waves?
The amplitude of sound waves is associated with the loudness of the sound. A larger amplitude produces a louder sound, while a smaller amplitude produces a quieter sound.
