The increase in the height of the tower of height \(200 \mathrm{~m}\) to get its coverage range tripled is

  1. A \(800 \mathrm{~m}\)
  2. B \(1600 \mathrm{~m}\)
  3. C \(900 \mathrm{~m}\)
  4. D \(700 \mathrm{~m}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(1600 \mathrm{~m}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, height of the tower, \(h_{1}=200 \mathrm{~m}\) If \(R\) be the radius of the earth, then coverage range, \(d=\sqrt{2 R h} \Rightarrow d \propto \sqrt{h}\) \(\Rightarrow \quad \frac{d_{1}}{d_{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{h_{1}}{h_{2}}}\)…
