Question

If a and b is height of two antennas then maximum distance upto which they can be placed apart is $\sqrt{paR}+\sqrt{qbR}$. (R is radius of earth)
Find value of p+q

Answer 1

R=Radius of Earth $h_t$=a

$d_m$=Maximum distance they can be placed apart $h_R$=b

$d_m=\sqrt{2R{h}_T+{2Rh}_R}$

from the question $\sqrt{paR}+\sqrt{qbR}$

$p+q=2+2$

$=4$
