← ScienceWhich consequence results when hydraulic fluid viscosity diminishes within landing gear?
A)Increased internal leakage occurs✓
B)Faster deployment speed results
C)Elevated bypass valve pressure
D)Decreased actuator mechanical advantage
💡 Explanation
Increased internal leakage occurs because lower viscosity reduces the fluid's resistance to flow through small clearances, thus allowing significantly more fluid to bypass the piston; therefore leakage increases rather than pressure changes because volumetric flow capacity diminishes.
