A spectrum analyser is an instrument used for :

  • A.Visualising time variation of a waveform
  • B.Identifying dominant frequencies and harmonics
  • C.Introducing noise floor
  • D.Determination of impedance of an element

Answer: B

A spectrum analyser is used for identifying dominant frequencies and harmonics.

A spectrum analyser displays signal amplitude against frequency, so it shows the frequency components of a signal: the fundamental, its harmonics, spurious signals and the noise floor.

Visualising the time variation of a waveform is the job of an oscilloscope. A spectrum analyser displays the noise floor but does not introduce it. Impedance is measured with an impedance analyser or LCR meter.
