    For sky wave propagation of a 10 MHz signal, what should be the minimum electron density in ionosphere [AIIMS 2005]

    A)            ~ 1.2 ´ 1012 m?3                   

    B)            ~ 106 m?3 

    C)            ~ 1014 m?3                              

    D)            ~ 1022 m?3

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               The critical frequency of a sky wave for reflection from a layer of atmosphere is given by \[{{f}_{c}}=9{{({{N}_{\max }})}^{1/2}}\] Þ \[10\times {{10}^{6}}=9{{({{N}_{\max }})}^{1/2}}\]  Þ \[{{N}_{\max }}={{\left( \frac{10\times {{10}^{6}}}{9} \right)}^{2}}\tilde{}1.2\times {{10}^{12}}{{m}^{-3}}\]
