This question has Statement -1 and Statement -2 . Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements. Statement-1 : Sky wave signals are used for long distance radio communication. These signals are in general, less stable than ground wave signals. Statement-2 : The state of ionosphere varies from hour to hour, day to day and season to season.

Options

  1. AStatement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is the correct explanation of Statement-1.
  2. BStatement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is not the correct explanation of Statement-1.
  3. CStatement- 1 is false, Statement- 2 is true.
  4. DStatement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false.

Correct answer

A. Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is the correct explanation of Statement-1.

Step-by-step solution

Since ionospheric properties change with time, these signals are in general less stable than ground wave signals.
