Question : 7

Electromagnetic waves with frequencies greater than the critical frequency of ionosphere cannot be used for communication using sky wave propagation because:

a) The refractive index of the ionosphere becomes very low for f > $f_ c$

b) The refractive index of the ionosphere very high for f < $f_c$

c) The refractive index of the ionosphere becomes very high for f > $f_c$

d) None of the these

Answer: (c)

For the total internal reflection of sky waves, the refractive index of the ionosphere should be less.

If f > fc, the refractive index will increase. By this waves will just pass without reflection taking place.

Question : 8

Telephony is an example of ________ mode of communication

a) broadcast

b) both (a) and (c)

c) point-to-point

d) None of these

c) Coating with black colour inside the box

d) Outer cover of the solar cooker

Answer: (b)

Question : 10

Consider the following statements:

  1. A geostationary satellite is at an approximate height of 10,000 km.
  2. FM transmission of music is of very good quality because the atmospheric or man-made noises which are generally frequency variations can do little harm.
Which of the statement(s) given above is/are correct?

a) 2 only

b) 1 and 2 both

c) 1 only

d) None

Answer: (a)

The geostationary satellite is a satellite having a time period of 24 hours. Using this time period, the height of the satellite comes out to be approximately 35,800 km.

FM broadcasting is a broadcast technology pioneered by Edwin Howard Armstrong that uses frequency modulation (FM) to provide high-fidelity sound over broadcast radio. FM transmission is quite immune to noise as compared to AM transmission.

Noise is a form of amplitude variations in the transmitted signal due to atmosphere, industries, etc.
