Power dissipation calculation across resistor from FM equation
        
	  
	
    Q.  Calculate the dissipation in power across 20Ω resistor for the FM signal 
v(t)= 20 cos(6600t+ 10sin2100t)- Published on 14 Oct 15a. 5W
b. 20W
c. 10W
d. 400W
ANSWER: 5W
 
A standard FM signal is represented by
v(t) = Ac cos(2πfct + kfsin2πfmt)
Ac = carrier amplitude
fc =  carrier frequency
 kf = modulation index
fm  = modulating frequency 
kf  = frequency deviation/modulating frequency
the power dissipated across 20Ω resistor is given by
Vrms2/R
=(20/√2)2/R
 = 5W
