An audio signal of 15 kHz frequency cannot be transmitted over long distances without modulation, because
(a) The size of the required antenna would be at least 5 km which is not convenient
(b) The audio signal cannot be transmitted through sky waves
(c) The size of the required antenna would be at least 20 km, which is not convenient
(d) Effective power transmitted would be very low, if the size of the antenna is less than 5 km

This is a Multiple Choice Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Answer- a, b, d

Explanation- frequency is given by Vm=15KHz

So wavelength is given by $? = \frac{c}{v} = \frac{3 * 10^{8}}{15 * 10^{3}} = \frac{1}{5} * 10^{5} m$

Also we know that l = $? / 4$ = 5km

The audio signals are of low frequency waves. Thus, they cannot be transmitted through sky

Waves as they are absorbed b

The TV transmission tower at a particular station has a height of 125 m. For doubling the coverage of its range, the height of the tower should be increased by

Vishal Baghel

According to question, we can write

$d = \sqrt[]{2 h R} \Rightarrow \frac{d_{2}}{d_{1}} = \sqrt[]{\frac{h_{2}}{h_{1}}} \Rightarrow h_{2} = {(\frac{d_{2}}{d_{1}})}^{2} h_{1} = {(\frac{2}{1})}^{2} \times 125 = 500 m$

Increment in height of tower = h₂ – h₁ = 500 – 125 = 375 m

A signal containing multiple frequencies is shown in figure A. It is passed through 2 different filters and then outputs are shown in figure B & C.

Low pass filter will allow low frequency signal to pass while high pass filter allow high frequency to pass through

An antenna is mounted on a 400m tall building. What will be the wavelength of signal that can be radiated effectively by the transmission tower upto a range of 44kg?

µ = A? /A? = 0.5 {A? = 20 volt, A? = 40 volt}
m (t) = A? sin ω? t {ω? = 2π×10? }
c (t) = A? sin ω? t {ω? = 2π×10×10³}
C? (t) = (A? + A? sin ω? t) sin ω? t ⇒ A? {1+ µsin ω? t} sin ω? t

For VHF signal broadcasting........ km² of maximum service area will be covered by an antenna tower of height 30m, if the receiving antenna is placed at ground. Let radius of the earth be 6400km. (Round off to the Nearest Integer) (Take π as 3.14)
