As frequency of B is more than A so it has more refractive index also and if a wave have higher refractive index then it has less angle of refraction. So wave B travel more in ionosphere.

Increment in height of tower = h2 – h1 = 500 – 125 = 375 m
Low pass filter will allow low frequency signal to pass while high pass filter allow high frequency to pass through
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
