← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a transmission line's inductive reactance substantially exceeds capacitive reactance?
A)High voltage standing wave ratio✓
B)Reduced line characteristic impedance
C)Predominantly resistive power dissipation
D)Enhanced bandwidth electromagnetic wave propagation
💡 Explanation
High VSWR happens because impedance mismatch induces reflection; standing wave forms via superposition; inductive reactance drives impedance high; Reactive power dominates rather than resistive because low resistance transmission prevents dissipation.
