A wireless charger uses a frequency of 85 kHz to induce current in a device coil. What will happen if the frequency is increased to 150 kHz without changing other factors?
ACharging efficiency will increase
BCharging efficiency will decrease
CCharging will stop completely
DFrequency has no effect on charging
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand frequency's role in inductive charging

    Charging efficiency depends on matching frequency between coils; too high frequency can reduce efficiency.
  2. Step 2: Analyze effect of increasing frequency

    Increasing frequency beyond design reduces energy transfer efficiency.
  3. Final Answer:

    Charging efficiency will decrease -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Frequency mismatch = Efficiency drops [OK]
Quick Trick: Frequency mismatch lowers charging efficiency [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Assuming higher frequency always improves charging
  • Thinking charging stops immediately
  • Ignoring frequency impact
