Q75 / 90 · JEE Main 2023 (31 Jan Shift 2) · Physics
Given below are two statements
Statement I : For transmitting a signal, size of antenna should be comparable to wavelength of signal (at least in dimension).
Statement II : In amplitude modulation, amplitude of carrier wave remains constant (unchanged).
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below
- ABoth Statement I and Statement II are correct
- BBoth Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
- CStatement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
- Correct answerDStatement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
Solution
In amplitude modulation frequency of carrier wave remains unchanged. Minimum size of antenna should be th of wavelength so that the antenna can sense the variations of the signal properly.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
