The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states that "Range is the largest distance between a source and a destination up to which the signal is received with sufficient strength." - This means that range refers to the maximum distance over which a communication signal can travel while still being strong enough to be effectively received. 2. **Evaluating the Assertion**: - The assertion is correct because it accurately defines the concept of range in communication systems. The range is indeed determined by the strength of the signal and the distance it can cover. 3. **Understanding the Reason (R)**: - The reason states that "Use of repeater station to increase the range of communication." - A repeater station is a device that receives a weak signal and retransmits it at a higher power, allowing the signal to travel further distances. 4. **Evaluating the Reason**: - The reason is also correct. Repeaters are commonly used in communication systems to extend the range by overcoming obstacles (like mountains) or to cover larger distances where the signal would otherwise weaken. 5. **Conclusion**: - Both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) are true. Furthermore, the reason (R) provides a correct explanation for the assertion (A) because the use of repeaters directly contributes to increasing the effective range of communication. ### Final Answer: Both (A) and (R) are true, and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). ---

What does the term LOS communication mean? Name the types of waves that are used for this communication. Which of the two height of transmitting antenna and height of receiving antenna can effect the range over which this mode of communication remains effective?

A point source of monochromatic light of 1.0 mW is placed at a distance of 5.0 m from a metal surface. Light falls perpendicularly on the surface. Assume wave theory of light to hold and also that all the light falling on the circular area with radius =1.0 xx 10^-9m (which is few times the diameter of an atom) is absorbed by a single electron on the surface. Calculate the time required by the electron to receive sufficient energy to come out of the metal if the work function of the metal is 2.0eV .

A student performs an experiment to determine how the range of a ball depends on the velocity with which it is projected. The "range" is the distance between the points where the ball lends and from where it was projected, assuming it lands at the same height from which it was projected. It each trial, the student uses the same baseball, and launches it at the same angle. Table shows the experimental results. |{:("Trail","Launch speed" (m//s),"Range"(m)),(1,10,8),(2,20,31.8),(3,30,70.7),(4,40,122.5):}| Based on this data, the student then hypothesizes that the range, R, depends on the initial speed v_(0) according to the following equation : R=Cv_(0)^(n) , where C is a constant and n is another constant. The student performs another trial in which the ball is launched at speed 5.0 m//s . Its range is approximately:
