What should be the height of transmitting antenna if the T.V. telecast is to cover a radius of 128 km? `R_e = 6.4 xx 10^6`m. If the average population density around the tower is `1000//km^2`, how much population is covered? |

Answer» Correct Answer - 1280m Here, d = 128 km `= 128 xx 10^(3) m, R = 6.4 xx 10^6 m` , population density `= 1000//km^2` Height of transmitting antenna ` h = d^2/(2R) = (128 xx 10^3)^2/(2 xx 6.4 xx 10^6) = 1280m.` Total population covered `= pid^2 xx` population density `= 3.14 xx (128)^2 xx 1000 = 5.14 xx 10^7`. |
