← ScienceWhich mechanism causes higher impedance in a coaxial cable at resonance?
A)Travelling wave amplitude modulation
B)Standing wave impedance transformation✓
C)Skin effect at high impedance
D)Dielectric losses exceeding input power
💡 Explanation
Standing wave impedance transformation creates localized voltage and current peaks, because constructively interfering waves produce maxima; therefore the impedance appears high due to voltage maximum, rather than energy dissipating via dielectric losses or signal modulation.
