Question

• a 1-minute video of a cat pouncing ferociously on a twisty tie.
• a download of \the lion king\, a 1.5-hour animated film

is it possible for \the lion king\ to have a smaller file size than the shorter cat video?
choose 1 answer:
a yes, as long as \the lion king\ video is compressed with an open non - patented standard.
b yes, if \the lion king\ video is compressed with a lossy compression algorithm.
c yes, but only if \the lion king\ video is produced by a major company like disney.
d no, \the lion king\ video will always take up more space than the 1 - minute video.

Explanation:

File size depends on compression. Lossy compression reduces file size by discarding data (e.g., lower quality). A longer video can have a smaller size than a shorter one if compressed with lossy algorithms. Option A's open standard doesn't guarantee size; C's company has no direct link; D is wrong as compression can change size.

Answer:

B. Yes, if "The Lion King" video is compressed with a lossy compression algorithm.
