← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when microwave radiation encounters a Faraday cage?
A)Electromagnetic waves are largely blocked✓
B)Significant constructive wave interference occurs
C)Resonant electron spin aligns with the radiation
D)Dielectric breakdown occurs within the cage
💡 Explanation
Electromagnetic waves are blocked because the Faraday cage induces current which opposes the external field via electromagnetic induction; therefore, propagation is inhibited rather than amplified or causing breakdown effects due to dielectric material.
