Q. Non uniform distribution of variable currents in solid conductors resulting in an increase in the current density near the surface

A
Corona
B
Skin effect
C
Joule effect
D
Eddy current
Solution:

Skin effect is the tendency of an alternating electric current (AC) to become distributed within a conductor such that the current density is largest near the surface of the conductor, and decreases with greater depths in the conductor.
