A TV tower has height of 100m. What is the maximum distance upto which TV transmission can be received? `(R=6.4xx10^(6)m)`

A

`35.77km`

B

`32.70km`

C

`40km`

D

`40.70km`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, `h=100m, R=6.4xx10^(6)m`
As `d=sqrt(2hR)=sqrt(2xx100xx6.4xx10^(6)m)`
`=3.577xx10^(4)m=35.77km`
