Which consequence results when a municipal waterline reaches excessive flow speed?

A)Increased pipe wall erosion
B)Decreased static water pressure
C)Elevated laminar boundary layer
D)Reduced dissolved oxygen content

💡 Explanation

Excessive flow speed causes a transition to turbulence, therefore increased pipe wall erosion happens because turbulent flow intensifies shear stress; rather than influencing pressure or oxygen, the increased speed triggers turbulence.
