What do you mean by skip distance?

लघु उत्तरीय

उत्तर

A skip distance is the distance a radio wave travels, which typically includes a hop in the ionosphere. A skip distance is the distance between two sites on the Earth's surface where radio waves from a transmitter descend after being refracted downwards by different layers of the ionosphere.

The maximum frequency for reflection of sky waves from a certain layer of the ionosphere is found to be fmax = 9(Nmax)1/2, where Nmax is the maximum electron density at that layer of the ionosphere. On a certain day, it is observed that signals of frequencies higher than 5 MHz are not received by reflection from the F1 layer of the ionosphere while signals of frequencies higher than 8 MHz are not received by reflection from the F2 layer of the ionosphere. Estimate the maximum electron densities of the F1 and F2 layers on that day.
