The maximum amplitude of an amplitude modulated wave is $16 \mathrm{~V}$, while the minimum amplitude is $4 \mathrm{~V}$. The modulation index is
- $0.4$
- $0.5$
- $0.6$
- $4$
Solution
We have, $m=\frac{A_m}{A_c}=\frac{E_{\max }-E_{\min }}{E_{\max }+E_{\min }}$ Here, $E_{\max }=16 \mathrm{~V}$ and $E_{\min }=4 \mathrm{~V}$
$\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow \quad m=\frac{16-4}{16+4} \\
& =\frac{12}{20}=\frac{3}{5}=0.6
\end{aligned}$
