Question 1

In the 21^st century, with additional modes of delivery such as satellite, cable and the Internet, video has developed into the primary source of world communication.

Accepted Answer

With the advent of technology, video has become a dominant form of communication and the availability of multiple modes of delivery has facilitated this growth. Therefore, the statement is true.

Question 2

The video signal started as digital and has developed into analog with different types of linear formats.

Accepted Answer

The video signal originally started as analog and has developed into digital formats, including different types of linear and compressed formats.

Question 3

File-based systems allow random or non-linear access to information without respect to the order in which it was produced or its placement within the storage medium.

Accepted Answer

This is the definition of file-based systems. They allow for non-linear access to information.

Question 4

Human beings do not process digital information.

Accepted Answer

Humans process analog information, not digital information. Digital information is processed by computers.

Question 5

No matter how digital the equipment is that is used to capture an image, the eyes and ears see the final result as analog.

Accepted Answer

The eyes and ears perceive images and sounds as analog signals, regardless of whether they were captured digitally or not.

Question 6

Today a video image is conveyed using which digital components?&#10;A) tubes&#10;B) chips&#10;C) resistors&#10;D) flux capacitors

Accepted Answer

Video images are conveyed using digital components such as chips (also known as integrated circuits). Tubes and resistors are analog components that were commonly used in older technologies but are not commonly used in digital video transmission. Flux capacitors are fictional components from the movie "Back to the Future" and do not exist in reality.

Question 7

When television was first created, cameras and television sets required a&#10;A) dissipate heat from large CMOS sensors&#10;B) fit the components of the recording devices&#10;C) house the original tube technology of the analog world&#10;D) baffle the noise caused by their intricate mechanical systems

Accepted Answer

When television was first created, cameras and television sets required housing the original tube technology of the analog world.

Question 8

In the early days of television, the primary system for reproduction of video&#10;A) motion picture film&#10;B) wire recording&#10;C) videotape&#10;D) kinescopes

Accepted Answer

The answer of In the early days of television, the...

Question 9

Since videotape can only record or reproduce information in the order in&#10;A) linear format&#10;B) nonlinear format&#10;C) logarithmic format&#10;D) none of the above

Accepted Answer

Videotape can only record and reproduce information in a linear format, meaning that the information is stored and played back in the order it was recorded, from beginning to end. Nonlinear and logarithmic formats apply to other types of data storage and processing, but not to videotape.

Question 10

Some facilities still use video tape recorders for inclusion of &#34;legacy&#34; content.&#10;A) nonlinear&#10;B) analog&#10;C) digital&#10;D) binary

Accepted Answer

Video tape recorders are an analog technology used for recording video content. The term "legacy" suggests that this technology is outdated and no longer commonly used, making it unlikely to be a digital or binary system. Nonlinear editing refers to digital editing systems, so it is also unlikely to be the best choice.
