← ScienceWhich outcome results from exceeding tokamak confinement limits?
A)Plasma quench wastes thermal energy✓
B)Increased radiative energy confinement
C)Decreased magnetic field energy loss
D)Enhanced fuel pellet energy ablation
💡 Explanation
A plasma quench occurs because excessive particle loss causes rapid cooling via thermal conduction rather than retained energy. Therefore, kinetic energy is released damaging the tokamak vessel, rather than contributing to sustained fusion.
