Consider a continuous-time signal . If this signal is sampled at a rate of 45 Hz, will aliasing occur? Explain your reasoning.
No, because the sampling frequency is greater than the signal frequency.
Yes, because the sampling frequency is less than the signal frequency.
No, because the Nyquist rate is met.
Yes, because the sampling frequency is not an integer multiple of the signal frequency.
A signal is sampled at 1000 Hz. If the highest frequency component in the original signal is 400 Hz, is the sampling rate sufficient to avoid aliasing? Explain your reasoning.
Yes, because the sampling frequency is greater than twice the maximum frequency.
No, because the sampling frequency is less than the maximum frequency.
Yes, because the sampling frequency is equal to twice the maximum frequency.
No, because the sampling frequency is less than half the maximum frequency.
