Which outcome occurs when an energetic electron approaches insulation?

A)Disruptive avalanche multiplication within dielectric occurs
B)Capacitance increases due to polarization
C)Complete blocking due to perfect reflection
D)Superconducting transport through localized pair production

💡 Explanation

Avalanche multiplication occurs because impact ionization creates more free carriers; therefore, dielectric breakdown results, rather than simple polarization, which would require a lower voltage, with electron gaining substantial kinetic energy prior to the collision with atoms.
