प्रश्न
Answer briefly.
What are radio waves?
उत्तर
- Radio waves are produced by accelerated motion of charges in a conducting wire. The frequency of waves produced by the circuit depends upon the magnitudes of the inductance and the capacitance.
- Thus, by choosing suitable values of the inductance and the capacitance, radio waves of the desired frequency can be produced.
