Which effect diminishes a satellite signal's strength through rain?

💡 Explanation

Signal attenuation occurs because water molecules absorb electromagnetic energy via atmospheric absorption, dropping signal strength; therefore, signal power diminishes rather than being refracted or having specific frequencies selectively reduced.
