The initials FM stand for frequency modulation. When broadcasting a radio wave, the constant frequency B in our problems becomes a varying quantity, f(t), such that
y Asin[2 f (t)]t . This causes the waves to have an inconsistent wavelength. The FCA
assigns each radio station a band-width around an assigned frequency in megahertz, MHz, which is simply a million waves/second. For example, 98.7 is allowed to let its frequencies vary slightly above/below 98.7 MHz.
a. Suppose a FM radio station is assigned an equation of
y Asin[2(93,200,00010,000sin500t)]t . What is the assigned frequency in
MHz?
(2)
Give the minimum and maximum frequencies of the FM radio station over time. (2)
If youve ever changed stations while traveling, you may have been able to hear 2 FM stations at the same time. Explain how this can happen. (1)
