Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the expression for the coverage distance and height of a transmitting antenna, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Setup**: - Draw a diagram with the Earth as a flat surface. - Mark the height of the transmitting antenna as \( h \) and the radius of the Earth as \( r \). - Let \( O \) be the center of the Earth, \( A' \) be the top of the antenna, and \( B \) be a point on the surface of the Earth where the signal reaches. ...

What are T.V. signals? Explain their propagation. Find the relation between coverage distance and height of transmitting antenna.

If the area to be covered for TV telecast is doubles then height of transmitting antenna (TV tower) will have to be:

Assertion: Space waves are used for litre -of -sight communication. Reason: Space wave travels in a straight line from transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna.

If h_(T) and h_(R) are the height of the transmitting and receiving antennas above the earth's surface and R is the radius of earth, then distance between the transmitting and receiving antenna is

A transmitting antenna at the top of a tower has height 32 m and height of the receiving antenna is 50 m. What is the maximum distance between them for satisfactory communication in line of sight (LOS) mode?

In a line of sight radio communication, a distance of about 50 is Kept between the transmitting and receiving entennas. If the height of the receiving antenna is 70m , then the minimum height fof the transmitting antenna should be: ("Radius of the Earth"=6.4xx10^(6)m) .

If the TV telecast is to cover a radius of 120 km ( Given , the radius of the earth = 6400 km ), the height of the transmitting antenna is
