for transmission. How many telephonic channels can be transmitted simultaneously if each channel
requires a bandwidth of 5 kHz ?
A.
2 $\times$ 106
B.
2 $\times$ 103
C.
2 $\times$ 105
D.
2 $\times$ 104
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
The carrier frequency is 10 GHz, and only 10% of it is utilized for transmission. Therefore, the bandwidth used for transmission is:
We should convert this to kHz because the channel bandwidth is given in kHz:
$1 \text{ GHz} = 1,000,000 \text{ kHz}$
Now, if each telephonic channel requires a bandwidth of 5 kHz, the number of channels that can be transmitted simultaneously is:
$\text{Number of channels} = \frac{\text{Total bandwidth}}{\text{Bandwidth per channel}}$
$\text{Number of channels} = \frac{1,000,000 \text{ kHz}}{5 \text{ kHz}}$
$\text{Number of channels} = 200,000$
So, 200,000 telephonic channels can be transmitted simultaneously.
Among the given options, the correct answer is Option C: $2 \times 10^5$.

An audio signal consists of two distinct sounds : one a human speech signal in the frequency band of 200 Hz to 2700 Hz, while the other is a high frequency music signal in the frequency band of 10200 Hz to 15200 Hz. The ratio of the AM signal bandwidth required to send both the signals together to the AM signal bandwidth required to send just the human speech is :
A.
3
B.
5
C.
6
D.
2
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
To calculate the ratio of the AM signal bandwidth required to send both the signals together to the AM signal bandwidth required to send just the human speech, we need to consider the frequency range covered by both signals.
For the human speech signal, the frequency band is from 200 Hz to 2700 Hz. Therefore, the bandwidth required to send just the human speech is :
Bandwidth for speech = 2700 Hz - 200 Hz = 2500 Hz
For the high-frequency music signal, the frequency band is from 10200 Hz to 15200 Hz. So, the bandwidth required to send the music signal is :
Bandwidth for music = 15200 Hz - 10200 Hz = 5000 Hz
To send both signals together, we need to consider the combined frequency range. The combined frequency range covers from 200 Hz to 15200 Hz. Hence, the bandwidth required to send both signals together is :
Total bandwidth = 15200 Hz - 200 Hz = 15000 Hz
Now, let's calculate the ratio :
Ratio = Total bandwidth / Bandwidth for speech
$ \Rightarrow $ Ratio = 15000 Hz / 2500 Hz
$ \Rightarrow $ Ratio = 6
Therefore, the correct answer is Option C : 6.

A carrier wave with amplitude of 250 V is amplitude modulated by a sinusoidal base band signal of amplitude 150V. The ratio of minimum amplitude to maximum amplitude for the amplitude modulated wave is 50 : x, then value of x is ____________.
Correct Answer: 200
Explanation:
Given, the amplitude of the carrier wave, Ac = 250 V
The amplitude of the message wave, Am = 150 V
We know that,
The maximum amplitude, Amax = Ac + Am
Substituting the values in the above equation, we get
Amax = 250 + 150 = 400 V
We know that,
The minimum amplitude, Amin = Ac $-$ Am
Substituting the values in the above equation, we get
Amin = 250 $-$ 150 = 100 V
Thus, the ratio of the minimum amplitude to the maximum amplitude of the modulated wave is

Since, maximum amplitude,
Amax = Am + Ac
$\Rightarrow$ Vmax = Vm + Vc $\Rightarrow$ 200 = Vm + 160
$\Rightarrow$ Vm = 200 $-$ 160 $\Rightarrow$ Vm = 40
$\therefore$ Peak voltage, Am = 40

If the highest frequency modulating a carrier is 5 kHz, then the number of AM broadcast stations accommodated in a 90 kHz bandwidth are _________.
Correct Answer: 9
Explanation:
B. W. (Bandwidth) = 2 $\times$ maximum frequency at modulating signal
= 2 $\times$ 5kHz
= 10 kHz
$ \therefore $ No of stations accommodate
= ${{90} \over {10}}$ = 9

A signal of 0.1 kW is transmitted in a cable. The attenuation of cable is $-$5 dB per km and cable length is 20 km. The power received at receiver is 10$-$x W. The value of x is ________.
[Gain in $dB = 10{\log _{10}}\left( {{{{P_o}} \over {{P_i}}}} \right)$]
Correct Answer: 8
Explanation:
Given, power of transmitted signal, Pi = 0.1 kW = 0.1 $\times$ 103W = 102 W
Rate of attenuation, R = $-$5 dB/km
Length of cable, l = 20 km
Power received at receiver, Px = 10$-$x W
Total loss, $\beta$ = R $\times$ l = $-$5 $\times$ 20 = $-$ 100 dB
$\because$ Gain ($\beta$) = $10{\log _{10}}{{{P_0}} \over {{P_i}}}$
