← ScienceWhich outcome primarily determines the propagation speed of millimeter waves in a dielectric-filled waveguide?
A)Material's relative permittivity✓
B)Waveguide cutoff frequency
C)Conductor skin depth reduction
D)Internal electron work function
💡 Explanation
The dielectric filling impacts wave propagation speed in a waveguide because the material's relative permittivity increases capacitance and slows wave propagation. Therefore speed is determined by the permittivity, rather than conductor properties or cutoff which influence propagation mode.
