← ScienceWhich outcome arises when atmospheric ducting affects radar propagation?
A)Extended detection range occurs✓
B)Signal attenuation becomes extreme
C)Frequency shift becomes negligible
D)Polarization shift diminishes rapidly
💡 Explanation
Signal bending results in extended detection range because refraction focuses radar waves allowing them to travel further due to atmospheric ducting, rather than signal weakening or polarization changes in uniform atmospheric conditions; therefore detection range improves.
