Step 1
The Nyquist frequency is defined as half of the sampling frequency. In this case, we need to determine the highest frequency component in the function cos(800t). Since the frequency of the cosine function is 800, the Nyquist frequency would be half of that, which Show more…

Illustrate the phenomenon of frequency folding mathematically. To do this, consider a sampling rate of f: samples per second and give the expression for the Nyquist frequency f. Follow this procedure: Write an expression for the harmonic (sine or cosine) function of time frequency fi+Af. Consider the values of this function at sampling times that are 1s apart, at t = kAt (how is At related to f?). Show that the harmonic function taken at sampled times only is equivalent to another one with frequency fi - 4f.
