← ScienceWhich mechanism increases jet engine efficiency during flight?
A)Increased pressure from air ram✓
B)Fuel auto-ignition from static discharge
C)Thermal runaway in turbine metals
D)Decreased inlet airflow with altitude
💡 Explanation
Air ram causes higher inlet pressure, increasing compression due to the ideal gas law; therefore, fuel burns more efficiently at high pressure, rather than inefficient combustion with lower pressure and uncontrolled burn.
