प्रश्न
Answer the following question.
Why a signal transmitted from a TV tower cannot be received beyond a certain distance? Write the expression for the optimum separation between the receiving and the transmitting antenna.
उत्तर
The signal transmitted from a TV tower cannot be received beyond a certain distance because of the curvature of the earth. The expression for the optimum separation between the receiving and transmitting antenna:
`d = sqrt(2hR)`
d: Optimum separation.
h: Height of the antenna
R - Radius of the curvature of Earth.

An audio signal of 15kHz frequency cannot be transmitted over long distances without modulation because ______.
- the size of the required antenna would be at least 5 km which is not convenient.
- the audio signal can not be transmitted through sky waves.
- the size of the required antenna would be at least 20 km, which is not convenient.
