The correct Answer is:
To analyze the two statements provided in the question, we will break down each statement and evaluate their validity step by step. ### Step 1: Evaluate Statement 1 **Statement 1:** The audio frequency signals (20 Hz to 20 kHz) cannot be transmitted without distortion over long distances. - **Analysis:** - Audio frequency signals operate within the range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz. - When transmitting these low-frequency signals over long distances, the size of the antenna required becomes impractically large (approximately 8 km for effective transmission). - Additionally, low-frequency signals are more susceptible to distortion due to various factors, including attenuation and interference from other signals. - **Conclusion:** Statement 1 is true. ### Step 2: Evaluate Statement 2 **Statement 2:** Noise has its greatest effect when the signal is weak. - **Analysis:** - In communication systems, noise refers to any unwanted signal that interferes with the transmission of the desired signal. - When the signal strength is weak, the noise becomes more prominent relative to the signal, making it difficult to distinguish the actual signal from the noise. - This phenomenon is particularly critical in communication channels where the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is low. - **Conclusion:** Statement 2 is also true. ### Step 3: Relationship Between Statements - Statement 2 provides a valid explanation for Statement 1. The distortion in transmitting audio frequency signals over long distances is exacerbated by the presence of noise, which has a more significant impact when the signal is weak. ### Final Conclusion - Both statements are true, and Statement 2 correctly explains Statement 1. Therefore, the correct answer is that both statements are true, and Statement 2 is the correct explanation for Statement 1.
