Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): Direct current flowing the conductor gets uniformly distributed
Statement (II): An alternating current flowing through the conductor does not distribute uniformly.
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

• A. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are true.
• B. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are false.
• C. Statement (I) is true but Statement (II) is false.
• D. Statement (I) is false but Statement (II) is true.

Hint:

At high frequencies, the skin effect is so pronounced that current flows almost entirely along a thin outer layer of the conductor. This is why hollow conductors or stranded Litz wire are often used in high-frequency applications.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A
