What will be the area of reception of the signals transmitted by the TV antenna of length 300 m and radius of earth is 6400 km ?

A

`12058 " km"^(2)`

B

`300 "km"^(2)`

C

`500 " km"^(2)`

D

`1258" km"^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Area converted ` = pi d^(2)`
` = 2 xx 3.14 xx 6400 xx 10^(3) xx 300`
` = 1258 km^(2)`
