Right Answer is: B

SOLUTION

We have \(m(t)={{\sin 200\pi t} \over {\pi t}}\). Thus,Fourier transform of \(m(t)\) is given by,

\(m(t)={{\sin 200\pi t} \over {\pi t}}\mathop \rightarrow \limits^{{\rm{F}}}M(\omega)=rect\left(\frac{\omega}{400\pi}\right)\)

Now, \(M(\omega)\)is as shown below

We see the maximum frequency component is \(f_m=\frac{200\pi}{2\pi}=100\ Hz\)

Thus, Nyquist rate \(f_s=2f_m=200\ Hz\)
