If the maximum and minimum voltage of an $AM$ wave are $V_{max}$ and $V_{min}$,then the modulation index is given by:

  • A
    $\frac{V_{max}}{V_{min}}$
  • B
    $\frac{V_{max} - V_{min}}{V_{max} + V_{min}}$
  • C
    $\frac{V_{max} + V_{min}}{V_{max} - V_{min}}$
  • D
    $\frac{V_{max}^2}{V_{max}^2 - V_{min}^2}$
