Which outcome occurs when a transmission line's characteristic impedance mismatches load capacitance?

💡 Explanation

When impedance mismatches occur between transmission line and load capacitance, electromagnetic waves are reflected because the energy transfer is inefficient under these non-ideal conditions, which increases the reflected signal. Therefore signal reflection occurs, rather than optimized dissipation, frequency shift or dielectric breakdown, which result from other system faults.
