COMEDK · Physics · 24. Electromagnetic Waves

Television frequencies are of the order of \(100 \mathrm{MHz}\), while radio frequencies are of the order of \(1 \mathrm{MHz}\). Using these as typical frequencies, the ratio of the emf generated in a loop antenna by a television wave to that generated by a radio wave, if both have equal electric field intensities.

  1. A 1
  2. B 10
  3. C 100
  4. D 66.6
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 100

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The emf \(\mathcal{E}\) induced in a loop antenna by an electromagnetic wave is proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux through the loop, which is given by Faraday's law \(\mathcal{E} = -\dfrac{d\Phi}{dt}\). The magnetic field \(B\) of an electromagnetic wave is…
