TEM mode exists in

  • A. A circular wave guide
  • B. A rectangular wave guide
  • C. A co-axial cable
  • D. None of the transmission lines

Answer: C. A co-axial cable

Explanation: Transverse Electromagnetic (TEM) mode requires at least two conductors to exist. Coaxial cables have two conductors (inner and outer), whereas standard rectangular or circular waveguides are single-conductor hollow structures and do not support TEM mode.
