← ScienceWhich unstable outcome develops inside a magnetic confinement fusion reactor when plasma pressure exceeds magnet field containment?
A)Ideal Magnetohydrodynamic Instabilities development✓
B)Neutron flux decreases proportionally
C)Bremsstrahlung radiation lowers reactor temperature
D)Helium ash accumulates inhibiting fusion
💡 Explanation
Ideal Magnetohydrodynamic Instabilities develop when the plasma pressure overcomes magnetic field pressure inside the reactor core because this allows disruptive plasma motion as the magnetic fields can no longer stabilize it; therefore, plasma confinement is lost, rather than increased radiation or harmless ash accumulation.
