← ScienceWhich consequence follows reduced static pressure via Bernoulli's equation in an aircraft wing's upper surface?
A)Increased stall speed onset
B)Decreased induced drag outcome
C)Reduced lift coefficient efficacy
D)Elevated risk of boundary-layer separation✓
💡 Explanation
Boundary-layer separation risk elevates, because an adverse pressure gradient forms hindering flow, and the mechanism is viscous retardation, rather than inertial forces overcoming the adverse gradient. Therefore, localized flow reverses near the surface, rather than maintaining attached flow.
