Which outcome occurs during heavy lathe cutting when exceeding vibration limits?

A)Chatter inducing surface defects form
B)Tool bit hardness temporarily increases
C)Cutting fluid viscosity dramatically thickens
D)Spindle bearing lubrication spontaneously improves

💡 Explanation

Surface defects form due to self-excited vibration; this is the effect of dynamic instability (chatter) in the tool-workpiece system because the **regenerative effect** amplifies vibrations at specific frequencies. Therefore, chatter occurs, rather than fluid changes, tool hardening, or better lubrication which are unrelated to resonant vibration frequencies.
