← ScienceWhich risk increases for submarine communications when temperature decreases strongly within shallow thermoclines?
A)Increased multi-path signal propagation✓
B)Increased parasitic inductive capacitance
C)Diminished faraday cage effectiveness
D)Decreased p-n semiconductor efficiency
💡 Explanation
Increased temperature gradients create channels that cause refraction. Therefore, multi-path signal propagation increases because the sound waves bend differently within the thermocline layer rather than behaving linearly like in homogeneous water.
