← ScienceWhich risk escalates when dielectric material weakens inside energized capacitors?
A)Reduced capacitive reactance emerges afterwards
B)Electrostatic discharge induces cascade ionization✓
C)Magnetic field generation becomes unsustainable
D)Increased impedance permanently shunts current elsewhere
💡 Explanation
Cascade ionization risk increases because weakened dielectric enhances the local electric field, facilitating electron emission and subsequent ionization. This breakdown progresses dramatically, therefore discharge induces cascading ionization rather than reactance changes, field stability, or impedance shifts.
