On which of the following factors skin effect depends?
Correct answer: D. All of the above
- A. Frequency of the current
- B. Size of the conductor
- C. Resistivity of the conductor material
- D. All of the above
Explanation
Skin effect increases with frequency and conductor size, and it also varies with the material resistivity. These factors determine how strongly current is forced toward the conductor surface, so all are applicable.
