A massage signal of frequency 3 kHz is used to modulate a carrier signal of frequency 1 . 5 MHz . The bandwidth of the amplitude modulated wave is
Options
- A  6   MHz
- B6   kHz
- C3   MHz  
- D3   kHz
Correct answer
B. 6   kHz
Step-by-step solution
The relation between bandwidth and the signal frequency is given by Bandwidth = 2 ×   signal   frequency       . . . 1 Substitute the values of the known parameter into equation (1) to calculate the required bandwidth. Bandwidth =   2   ×   3   kHz =   6   kHz
