    (A) : Greater is the height of T.V. transmitting antenna, greater is its range. (R) : The range of T.V. transmitting antenna is proportional to square root of its height.

    (A): The area to be covered for T.V telecast is doubled, then the height of transmitting antenna will have to be halved (R): For T.V signal, population covered is equal to population density and area covered

    The maximum distance between the transmitting and receiving TV towers is 65km . If the ratio of the heights of the TV transmitting tower to receiving tower is 36:49, the heights of the transmitting and receiving towers respectively are (radius of earth = 6400km)
