Optical fibres are used to transmit digital signals using infrared radiation.
The average refractive index of the fibres is 1.25.
Which row describes a digital signal and gives the speed of infrared radiation in the fibres?
| digital signal | speed of infrared radiation in the fibres / m s−1\text{m s}^{-1}m s−1 | |
|---|---|---|
| A | a signal that consists of a continuous range of values | 2.4 × 108 |
| B | a signal that consists of only two values | 2.4 × 108 |
| C | a signal that consists of only two values | 3.8 × 108 |
| D | a signal that consists of a continuous range of values | 3.8 × 108 |
