An information signal consists of a 25 Hz and a 75 Hz sine waves summed together. It is sampled at a frequency of 500 Hz, the highest resulting frequency is . g

Explanation:

An information contains

25Hz and 75Hz sine wave

Sample frequency is 500Hz

The analogy signal are generally

y(t) = Asin(2πx/λ - wt), w=2πf

y1(t)=Asin(2πx/λ - wt)

y1(t)=Asin(2πx/λ - 2π•25t)

y1(t)=Asin(2πx/λ - 50πt)

Similarly

y2(t)=Asin(2πx/λ - 150πt)

Using Nyquist theorem

Nyquist Theorem states that in order to adequately reproduce a signal it should be periodically sampled at a rate that is 2 times the highest frequency you wish to record.

From sampling

f(nyquist)=f(sample)/2

f(nyquist)=500/2

f(nyquist)=250Hz

From signal

The highest frequency is 150Hz

F(nyquist) = 2×F(highest)

f(nyquist)= 2×150

f(nyquist)= 300Hz

Sample per frequency Ns is given as

Ns=F(sample)/F(highest signal)

Ns=500/150

Ns=3.33sample/period

This is above nyquist rate of 2sample/period

So signal below 300Hz reproduced without aliasing.

The highest resulting frequency is 300Hz
