Correct answer: (C) secθ2
23. If electric permittivity and magnetic permeability of the medium are respectively 'ε' and μ, then the velocity (Cm) of the electromagnetic wave in the medium is given by:
Cm = 1/εμ
Cm = 1/√8 μ
Cm = 5/√εμ
None of these
Correct answer: (B) Cm = 1/√8 μ
24. If flying height of a spacecraft is H, the length of air base is B and the parallax difference between two points is dp, then the difference in height
h = dp/(B/H)
h = (B/H) dp
h = dp/(H/B)
h = (H/B) dp
Correct answer: (A) h = dp/(B/H)
