Resistive losses in a waveguide are very small because:

  • Correct Answer
    The inner surface of the waveguide is large.
  • The inner surface of the waveguide is small.
  • The waveguide does not require a ground connection.
  • The heat remains in the waveguide and cannot dissipate.

Resistive losses in a waveguide are very small because:

The inner surface of the waveguide is large.

Mnemonic: "Large Surface, Low Resistance"

The following is true concerning waveguides:

  • Conduction is accomplished by the polarization of electromagnetic and electrostatic fields.
  • Ancillary deflection is employed.
  • The magnetic field is strongest at the center of the waveguide.
  • Correct Answer

At microwave frequencies, waveguides are used instead of conventional coaxial transmission lines because:

  • They are smaller and easier to handle.
  • Correct Answer
    They have considerably less loss.
  • They are lighter since they have hollow centers.
  • Moisture is never a problem with them.
