Electromagnetic waves with frequency gre...

Electromagnetic waves with frequency 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 high `fgtf_(c)`

B

the refractive index of the ionosphere very high low `fgtf_(c)`

C

the refreactive index of the ionosphere very high for `fgtf_(c)`

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a

For total of the ionosphere should be less. If `fgtf_(c)'` the refractive index will increase.
