← ScienceWhich consequence results when charge builds excessively within a capacitor?
A)Dielectric material breakdown occurs internally✓
B)Electrostatic force assists ion migration
C)Plate separation facilitates charge balancing
D)Inductive reactance neutralizes capacitive reactance
💡 Explanation
Dielectric breakdown will occur within the capacitor. This happens as an intensified electric field exceeds the dielectric strength, causing ionization because the insulating material becomes conductive; therefore a breakdown occurs rather than charge balancing by reactance.
