In a half-wave dipole, where does minimum voltage occur?

  1. AIt is equal at all points
  2. BBoth ends
  3. CThe centre
  4. DAt the right end

Correct answer: C — The centre. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.

Why

In a half-wave dipole, the voltage is lowest right at the centre because that is where the antenna connects to the feedline and current flows most freely. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
