Class 12th Physics 2017 Set2 Delhi Board Paper Solution
Distinguish between a transducer and a repeater.
Transducer is a device used for converting one form of energy into another form. Microphone is a transducer because it converts sound energy into electrical energy.
Repeater is a device which picks up electromagnetic signal, amplifies it and then again transmits it to the receiver. It is used when transmitted signal is attenuated beyond a certain limit or distance between a transmitter and a receiver is very large.It is used in the communication system.
