Global positioning satellites (GPS) can be used to determine your position with great accuracy. If one of the satellites is 20,0

00 km from you, and you want to know your position to 2m, what percentage uncertainity is required?
Physics

8 0

Answer:

0.00001 %

Explanation:

The distance from satellite = 20000 km

Position range = 2 m

The percentage uncertainty is given by dividing the distance from satellite by the position range of desired accuracy.

Percentage uncertainty is given by

\dfrac{2}{20000\times 10^3}\times 100=0.00001\ \%

The percentage uncertainty that is required is 0.00001 %

When frequency division multiplexing (FDM) is used to aggregate several modulated channels together, no separation between chann
zaharov [31]

Answer:

False.

Separation between channel is required when frequency division multiplexing (FDM) is used to aggregate several modulated channels together.

Explanation:

In Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM), the total bandwidth is divided to a set of frequency bands that do not overlap. Each of these bands is a carrier of a different signal that is generated and modulated by one of the sending devices.

The frequency bands are separated from one another by strips of unused frequencies called the guard bands, to prevent overlapping of signals.

The modulated signals are combined together using a multiplexer (MUX) in the sending end. The combined signal is transmitted over the communication channel, thus allowing multiple independent data streams to be transmitted simultaneously. At the receiving end, the individual signals are extracted from the combined signal by the process of demultiplexing (DEMUX).

If the current in each wire is the same, which wire produces the strongest magnetic field?
lions [1.4K]

Answer: option 4: A wire that is 2-mm thick and coiled.

Explanation:

The current in each wire is same. The magnetic field due to a current carrying wire increases if the wire is coiled with the more number of turns. A thick wire would cause low resistance to the current. Hence, a 2-mm thick wire which is coiled would produce the strongest magnetic field.
