Amplitude modulation is the process of varying the magnitude of a carrier wave in accordance with respect to the instantaneous variation of the signal that is audio frequency signal.

Audio frequency signal = e_{c}= E\sin \omega _{s}t;\omega _{s}=2\pi f_{s}

fs = frequency of signal

For amplitude modulated wave E_{max}= E_{C}+E_{S}

                                                    E_{min}= E_{C}-E_{S}

(B) Given,

the maximum amplitude of the wave, E_{max}=20V

minimum amplitude of the wave, E_{min}=5V

We know that,

modulation index,

 m = \frac{E_{max}-E_{min}}{E_{max}+E_{min}}

 m = \frac{20-5}{20+5}= \frac{15}{25}=\frac{3}{5}

hence the modulation index of given amplitude wave is 0.6.
