In some situations, digital cable will produce a much crisper image than analog. What is one important cause of this?

• Digital signals are not as susceptible to noise as analog.

• Analog is incapable of producing images as crisp as digital.

• Digital is always a better option than analog.

• Analog signals transmit in discrete pulses which decreases transmission quality.

The gray plot and red plot attempt to transmit the same signal in the graph below. What is the best conclusion that can be drawn?

• The gray plot is a discrete analog signal.

• The red plot is a discrete digital signal.

• The red plot is a discrete analog signal.

• The red plot cannot transmit a useful signal because of its box like shape.

The drawing shows two waves. Which statement best compares these two waves?

• Wave 1 has a higher frequency because it has a longer wavelength than wave 2.

• Wave 1 has a higher frequency because it has a higher amplitude than wave 2.

• Wave 2 has more energy because it has a higher amplitude than wave 1.

• Wave 2 has more energy because it has a higher frequency than wave 1.
