← ScienceWhich outcome relating to signal degradation occurs with increased cable length?
A)Increased signal attenuation along the conductor✓
B)Decreased signal reflection at termination
C)Increased impedance matching with the source
D)Decreased capacitive reactance along path
💡 Explanation
As cable length increases, signal strength diminishes because of resistive losses; thus, increasing the **signal attenuation**. This occurs therefore reducing the signal amplitude rather than increasing amplification or changing behaviour at the termination.
