उत्तर
‘ii’ and some regions of ‘iv’.
Explanation:
A square law modulator is a device which can produce modulated waves by the application of the message signal and the carrier wave.
A square law modulator is used for modulation purposes. Characteristics shown by (i) and (iii) correspond to linear devices.
And by (ii) corresponds to the square law device which shows non-linear relations. Some parts of (iv) also follow square law.
Hence, (ii) and (iv) can be used for modulation.
