Question: 1 / 1030

A synchro transmitter is connected to a synchro receiver

Mechanically with gears.

Optically with a fiber optic cable.

Acoustically with sound waves.

Electrically with wires.

A synchro transmitter is typically connected to a synchro receiver electrically with wires because synchros are electromechanical devices that rely on electrical signals to transmit information. The transmitter generates an electrical signal that represents a specific position or movement, and this signal is carried through wires to the synchro receiver which interprets the signal to determine the position or movement being indicated. This electrical connection allows for accurate and precise transmission of data between the two components.

Mechanical connection with gears (Option A), optical connection with fiber optic cable (Option B), and acoustic connection with sound waves (Option C) are not commonly used methods for connecting synchro transmitters to synchro receivers in aviation applications.
