What should be the height of a transmitting antenna and the population covered if a television telecast is to cover a radius of 150 km? (Assume the average population density around the tower is 2000 km-2 and the radius of the Earth Re = 6.5 × 106 m)
- 1Height = 1800 m; Population Covered = 1413 × 108
- 2Height = 1600 m; Population Covered = 2 × 105
- 3Height = 1241 m; Population Covered = 7 × 105
- 4Height = 1731 m; Population Covered = 1413 × 105✓
Correct answer
Height = 1731 m; Population Covered = 1413 × 105
