A TV tower has a height of `60 `m. What is the maximum distance and area up to which TV transmission can be received? (Take radius of earth as `6.4 xx 10^6 m`).

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, D
(i) Distance `d= sqrt(2Rh) = sqrt(2xx6.4xx10^6xx60m)`
`=27.7 km`
(ii) Area covered `= pid^(2)=2piRh=(2xx3.14xx6.4xx10^6xx60)m^(2)`
` 2411 km^(2)`
