Question
please show math thank you
Jane is considering a new TV
She has an existing 50Mb/s connection through her Internet provider
A 1080p HD movie typically requires about 5GB/hour storage space
Questions:
How long will it take her to download a 90 minute movie in 1080p resolution
Will she be able to stream the movie in real time to her TV?
How long will it take her to download a 90 minute movie in 4k resolution?
What Internet connection would Jane need to stream the 4k movie in real time?
Bonus: How much does the Internet connection (from Q4) cost per month?
Assumptions for your calculation:
1 bit = 0 or 1 (abbreviation: b)
1 Byte = 8 bits (abbreviation: B)
1 KiloByte = 1024 Bytes (abbreviation: KB)
1 Kilobit = 1024 bits (abbreviation: Kb)
Mega = 1024 Kilo
Giga = 1024 Mega
Tera = 1024 Giga
4k resolution: 4096 x 2160 pixels per image
1080p resolution: 1920 x 1080 pixels per image
Explanation / Answer
90 minute movie means that 7.5 GB
now Jane has a connection of 50Mb per second
now mean know taht 1byte = 8 bit.
so her connection speed is 50/8 MB per second
Now to download it will take time (in seconds) = 7.5 * 1024 * 8 /50 = 1228.8 seconds
or it will make 20.48 minutes for the same.
Yes she should be able to stream the movie in real time
for 4K resolution the size of the movie will roughly become 4 times due to increase in pixel
so it will take four times the time taken previously 81.92 minutes
Jane should take a 200Mbps connection to stream this movie.
