Q

Which of the following inputs is required to indicate azimuth?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Meaning of azimuth on a radar display (what quantity it represents) • The role of gyro, synchronizer, and resolver in a radar system • Difference between a range display aid (like range rings) and an angle-measuring/input device

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: To show azimuth, what does the radar actually need to know about the antenna as it rotates? • Which of the listed items converts or provides direction/angle information, and which are mainly for timing or display enhancement? • For each choice, decide: Does this give information about where around the horizon the target is, or does it do something else (like timing or marking distances)?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the definition: azimuth = direction/bearing relative to a reference (e.g., the ship’s heading or true north) • Identify which option is directly involved in angle/antenna position sensing or conversion, not just range timing or screen marking • Eliminate any option that primarily deals with range indication or pulse timing rather than bearing/angle
