what is skin effect..

Answer / k.prakashchandra

The alternating current flowing through the conductor does
not distribute uniformly and it has a tendency to
concentrate near the surface of the conductor,as the
centre of the conductor has a larger inductance. This is
called skin effect.

what is skin effect..

Answer / p . agrawal

At high frequencies the inductive reactance of inner
surface increases as compared to outer surface due to which
current tends to flow on the outer surface i.e. through
the 'skin' of the conductor . this is called skin effect.

what is skin effect..

Answer / r.praveen durai

Skin Effect only applicable to Alternating current.
The Alternating current concentration is High in the surface of the conductor and More while it gradually decreasing towards the center of the conductor.. may be zero value in center.The acceleration of electric charge produce electromagnetic radiation which cancels the current towards center.
