MCQ IN COMPUTER SCIENCE & ENGINEERING

Detailed explanation-1: -Bitrate, as the name implies, describes the rate at which bits are transferred from one location to another. It measures how much data is transmitted in a given amount of time. Bitrate is commonly measured in bits per second (bps), kilobits per second (Kbps), or megabits per second (Mbps).

Detailed explanation-2: -What are bits per second (bps or bit/sec)? In data communications, bits per second (bps or bit/sec) is a common measure of data speed for computer modems and transmission carriers. As the term implies, the speed in bps is equal to the number of bits transmitted or received each second.

Detailed explanation-3: -Most bitrates are measured in bytes and megabytes. A megabyte is equal to a million bytes and a byte is 8 bits. So, despite being called “bitrate, ” bits are not measured directly. Bitrate encoding can vary a good deal given types of footage.

Detailed explanation-4: -Bitrate is commonly measured in bits per second (bit/s) and often includes a prefix, such as ‘kilo’, ‘mega’, ‘giga’, or ‘tera’. One kilobit per second (kbit/s) is the equivalent of 1000 bits per second. One megabit per second (mbit/s) equals 1000 kbit/s.

Detailed explanation-5: -Bps (with uppercase ‘B’) represents bytes per second. Use of Bps, KBps, or MBps is avoided in networking as computer architectures implement a byte with differing numbers of bits; some use four bits, most use eight bits, and a few use neither.
