Which outcome occurs when the cutoff frequency reduces below a signal's peak frequency, passing through a Butterworth filter?

💡 Explanation

The signal undergoes amplitude envelope distortion because frequency components are attenuated unequally leading to non-linear distortions; the Butterworth filter's steep roll-off causes this, rather than impedance matching issues or thermal increases, therefore altering the amplitude.
