Assertion: In a communication system based on amplitude modulation the modulation index is kept <1.
Reason: It ensures minimum distortion of signal.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
If assertion is true but reason is false.
If both assertion and reason are false.
Voltage of modulating wave of 5 V with 10 MHz frequency was superimposed on carrier wave of frequency 20 MHz and voltage 20 V then the modulation index is

None of these
Given below is the circuit diagram of an AM demodulator. For good demodulation of AM signal of carrier frequency f, the value of RC should be
RC = 1/f
RC < 1/f
RC ≥ 1/f
RC >> 1/f
Assertion: Electromagnetic waves with frequencies smaller than the critical frequency of ionosphere are used for communication using sky wave propagation.
Reason: The refractive index of the ionosphere becomes very high for frequencies higher than the critical frequency.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation ofthe assertion
If assertion is true, but reason is false
Both assertion and reason are false statements
B.
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation ofthe assertion
If the frequencies of the waves are less than that of the critical frequency. They will be reflected back as the ionosphere has refractive index less than free space. This is the principle of sky wave propagation.
The statement given in the reason that the refractive index becomes high is correct. But the reason given is not true for the assertion.
For skywave propagation of a 10 MHz signal, what should be the minimum electron density in ionosphere?
