What is bandwidth measured in?
A
mm / cm / km
B
Nm
C
Hz
D
kg
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Bandwidth is a range of frequencies within a continuous set of frequencies. It is measured in Hertz. The purpose of a communication system is to transfer information from the transmitter which is located in one place to a receiver which is usually far away from the transmitter.

Detailed explanation-2: -Bandwidth is the difference between the upper and lower frequencies in a continuous band of frequencies. It is typically measured in hertz, and depending on context, may specifically refer to passband bandwidth or baseband bandwidth.

Detailed explanation-3: -According to the definition of the bandwidth, it is the width of the frequency spectrum. Hence bandwidth should be measured in Hz. But bps, Mbps, kbps have been used as the measurement of bandwidth almost everywhere.

Detailed explanation-4: -Bandwidth is the maximum amount of data that can be transmitted over a network path in a fixed amount of time. Bandwidth is measured in bits per second (bps).

Detailed explanation-5: -To calculate bandwidth, divide the resonant frequency in hertz by the quality factor.
