Which consequence results when a shorted inductive cable transmits a high-frequency wave?

💡 Explanation

Wave reflection occurs because impedance mismatch at the short circuit causes total reflection, specifically due to standing wave formation, rather than increased transmission; therefore the wave reflects back toward the source, rather than propagating, because the mismatch in impedance overwhelms forward propagation.
