Your favorite radio station is located due north of your house and broadcasts using a horizontal electric dipole antenna directed north-south. To receive this signal you need to
a. use a vertical receiving antenna. b. use a magnetic dipole antenna instead of an electric dipole antenna. c. orient the receiving antenna horizontally north-south. d. move to a town that is farther to the east or west.

An AM radio station broadcasts isotropically (equally in all directions) with an average power of 3.60 kW. A dipole receiving antenna 70.0 cm long is at a location 4.00 miles from the transmitter. Compute the amplitude of the emf that is induced by this signal between the ends of the receiving antenna.
Radio station KBOB broadcasts at a frequency of 85.7 MHz on your dial using a radio waves that travel at 3.00X10^8 m/s. . Since nearly all of the station's audience is due south of the transmitter, the managers of KBOB don't want to waste any energy broadcasting to the east and west. They decide to build two towers, transmitting at exactly the same frequency, aligned on an east-west axis. For engineering reasons, the two towers must be at least 10...
[Ipt] A radio station operating at 100.7 MIz broadcasts from two identical antennae at the same elevation but separated by a 8.49 m horizontal distance d, as seen in the figure below Antenna 1 Midline_-L.- Antenna 2 A maximum signal is found along the midline, perpendicular to d at its midpoint and extending horizontally in both directions. If the midline is taken as 0, what is the smallest angle theta where a maximum signal is detected? Assume all measurements are...
Public television station KQED in San Francisco broadcasts a sinusoidal radio signal at a power of 316 kW. Assume that the wave spreads out uniformly into a hemisphere above the ground. A) At a home 5.50km away from the antenna, what average pressure does this wave exert on a totally reflecting surface? answer in PA units B)At a home 5.50km away from the antenna, what are the amplitudes of the electric and magnetic fields of the wave? answer in N/C,...
