Which outcome occurs within a coaxial cable when signal frequency increases?

💡 Explanation

The skin effect forces the current to flow closer to the conductor's surface because the increased frequency causes increased inductive reactance within the conductor, therefore current is limited to the surface, rather than distributing in depth as with DC.
