← ScienceWhich risk increases when variable capacitor plates misalign?
A)Reduced resonant circuit Q factor✓
B)Increased dielectric breakdown voltage
C)Enhanced electromagnetic interference shielding
D)Improved operational temperature stability
💡 Explanation
Misalignment causes decreased capacitance and increased series resistance, because suboptimal overlap reduces energy storage leading to greater resistive losses affecting the resonant circuit's Q factor, therefore reduces Q rather than improve temperature stability.
