Question

Radio waves are detected using which of the following?

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

Explanation

**Microwaves** λ≈10⁻³ to 0.3 m, f≈10⁹ to 10¹² Hz, produced by klystron/magnetron, used in microwave ovens because frequency ≈2.45 GHz matches rotational resonance of water molecules, causing dielectric heating, also radar, satellite communication due to small wavelength allows directional beams. As per the document, radio waves are detected using receiver's aerials. Using c = fλ, E₀/B₀ = c, I_d = ε₀ dΦ_E/dt, and spectrum classification λ = c/f, evaluation yields Receiver's aerials, illustrating EM wave transverse nature and Maxwell's displacement current concept.
