← ScienceWhich phenomenon limits signal propagation in coaxial cables?
A)Skin effect increases conductor resistance✓
B)Dielectric constant shifts impedance match
C)Reflections induce standing wave patterns
D)Faraday cage minimizes external inductance
💡 Explanation
The skin effect concentrates current on conductor surfaces, therefore increasing AC resistance as frequency rises because reactive impedance dominates rather than the linear resistance, so only option A directly induces these effects, not others related to shielding, constants or standing wavelength issues.
