Which outcome reduces maximum coil current when a superconducting magnet quenches?

A)Flux pinning reduces current limit
B)Critical temperature decreases sharply
C)Normal zone propagates resistance
D)Magnetic field fully collapses instantly

💡 Explanation

Quenching causes a loss of superconductivity; therefore, the normal zone propagation increases resistance, because energy dissipation from resistance heats more of the coil driving it normal, rather than options like magnetic collapse alone.
