← TechnologyWhich aerodynamic effect reduces lift when an aircraft stalls?
A)Boundary layer separation✓
B)Induced drag reduction
C)Spanwise flow stabilization
D)Laminar flow enhancement
💡 Explanation
Boundary layer separation diminishes lift because increased angles of attack disrupt smooth airflow over the wing, causing turbulence and preventing pressure differential, therefore lift decreases. Rather than increasing or stabilizing airflow from drag reduction or laminar flow enhancement, the stall condition deteriorates it.
