Multiple choice

For a parallel plate transmission line, let v be the speed of propagation and Z be the characteristic impedance. Neglecting fringe effects, a reduction of the spacing between the plates by a factor of two results in

  1. halving of v and no change in Z

  2. no changes in v and halving of Z

  3. no change in both v and Z

  4. halving of both v and Z
