When two RF signals on the same frequency arrive at a receiver at the exact same time and their peaks and valleys are in alignment, what is true about these signals?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The two RF signals are in phase.

Explanation:

A wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium which transfers energy from one point to another in the medium without causing any permanent displacement of the particles of the medium.

Characteristics of waves include frequency, wavelength, velocity, etc.

Two types of waves are longitudinal and transverse wave. Radio Frequency (RF) signals travel in the form of transverse waves which have regions of maximum and minimum displacements called crests and troughs.

Travelling waves with  the same frequency may be said to be in phase or out of phase depending on whether their crests/peaks or troughs/valleys are reached at the same instant of time.

When two RF signals on the same frequency arrive at a receiver at the exact same time and their peaks and valleys are in alignment or in step, they are said to be in phase.

The phase of a wave involves the relationship between the position of the amplitude peaks and valleys of two waveforms.
