What is the most effective means of denying the enemy the use of the electromagnetic spectrum?
A.
Denial
B.
Deception
C.
Disruption
D.
Destruction
Correct Answer
D. Destruction
Explanation The most effective means of denying the enemy the use of the electromagnetic spectrum is through destruction.

What type of electromagnetic jamming focuses all of the jamming energy in one particular
area?
A.
Support
B.
Standoff
C.
Directional
D.
Communications.
Correct Answer
C. Directional
Explanation Directional electromagnetic jamming refers to the type of jamming that concentrates all of the jamming energy in a specific area. Unlike other types of jamming, which may spread the jamming energy over a wider range, directional jamming is targeted and focused, allowing for more precise disruption of communication signals in a specific location. This type of jamming is often used in military operations to interfere with enemy communication systems without affecting friendly forces.

The angle of incidence required to get a reflection back to the source is
A.
30°.
B.
45°.
C.
90°.
D.
120°.
Correct Answer
C. 90°.
Explanation When light waves strike a surface, they can be reflected, absorbed, or transmitted. The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident light ray and the normal to the surface. The angle of reflection is the angle between the reflected light ray and the normal to the surface. According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. In this case, if the angle of incidence is 90°, it means that the incident light ray is perpendicular to the surface. This angle will result in a reflection that is directed back to the source, as the reflected ray will also be perpendicular to the surface.

What unit of a pulse radar provides very short pulse of DC voltage?
A.
Duplexer.
B.
Modulator.
C.
Power amplifier.
D.

Correct Answer
B. Modulator.
Explanation A modulator is the unit of a pulse radar that provides a very short pulse of DC voltage. The modulator is responsible for generating the high voltage pulses that are transmitted by the radar antenna. It takes a low power continuous wave signal and converts it into a high power pulsed signal by modulating the amplitude, frequency, or phase of the signal. This allows the radar to transmit short pulses of energy that can be used to detect and locate objects. The other options listed, such as the duplexer, power amplifier, and waveform generator, are not directly involved in generating the short pulses of DC voltage.
Rate this question:

What unit of a pulse radar provides the PRF of the radar?
A.
Modulator.
B.
Master timer.
C.
Power amplifier.
D.

Correct Answer
B. Master timer.
Explanation The master timer is responsible for providing the pulse repetition frequency (PRF) in a pulse radar system. The PRF determines the rate at which pulses are transmitted and is crucial for accurate target detection and measurement. The master timer controls the timing of the radar system, ensuring that pulses are transmitted at the desired frequency. The modulator is responsible for shaping the pulses, the power amplifier amplifies the pulses, and the waveform generator generates the waveform of the pulses. However, none of these components directly provide the PRF.

A nonlinear device is any electronic device where the
A.
Impedance remains constant when the voltage changes.
B.
Impedance remains constant when the current changes.
C.
Current through the device is proportional to the applied voltage.
D.
Current through the device is not proportional to the applied voltage.
Correct Answer
D. Current through the device is not proportional to the applied voltage.
Explanation A nonlinear device is characterized by the fact that the current through the device is not directly proportional to the applied voltage. In other words, as the voltage changes, the current does not change in a linear manner. This means that the impedance of the device does not remain constant as the voltage changes. Nonlinear devices often exhibit behaviors such as saturation, where the current reaches a maximum value even if the voltage continues to increase, or hysteresis, where the current depends not only on the current voltage but also on its history.

Correct Answer
C. Sum, difference, and two original frequencies.
Explanation When performing heterodyning of two different RF signals, the output will consist of the sum and difference of the two frequencies, as well as the two original frequencies. Heterodyning involves mixing two signals together to produce new frequencies, which are the sum and difference of the original frequencies. Therefore, the correct answer is that the output will contain the sum, difference, and two original frequencies.

360°.
Correct Answer
D. 360°.
Explanation The RWR's antennas provide a range of coverage of 360°. This means that the antennas can detect signals from all directions around the RWR system. It provides a complete view of the electromagnetic environment, allowing the system to detect and identify any potential threats or radar signals coming from any direction.

What component of the RWR processes the RF into a video signal?
A.
Antenna.
B.
Signal processor.
C.
Control indicator.
D.
Receiver/amplifier.
Correct Answer
D. Receiver/amplifier.
Explanation The receiver/amplifier is the component of the RWR (Radar Warning Receiver) that processes the RF (Radio Frequency) into a video signal. This component is responsible for receiving and amplifying the incoming RF signals from the antenna, and then converting them into a video signal that can be displayed on a screen or control indicator. The receiver/amplifier plays a crucial role in the RWR system by converting the RF signals into a format that can be easily interpreted and analyzed by the user.

What component of the RWR identifies radar signals?
A.
Antenna.
B.
Signal processor.
C.
Control indicator.
D.
Receiver/amplifier
Correct Answer
B. Signal processor.
Explanation The signal processor is the component of the RWR that identifies radar signals. It processes the received signals from the antenna and analyzes them to determine if they are radar signals. The signal processor is responsible for detecting, classifying, and tracking radar signals, allowing the RWR to provide accurate information about potential threats.
