Which effect occurs when a capacitive sensor experiences hysteresis?

A)Charge builds non-linearly on electrodes
B)Sensitivity declines at higher frequencies
C)Capacitance lags behind input changes
D)Energy dissipates via dielectric losses

💡 Explanation

Capacitance lags behind input changes because dielectric polarization requires molecular alignment within the capacitive material; therefore, capacitance values will differ based on previous states, exhibiting hysteresis rather than immediately mirroring changes.
