← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs for an aircraft upon landing with malfunctioning anti-lock brakes?
A)Increased tire wear, reduced braking✓
B)Improved stopping distance on landing
C)Optimal wheel speed maintenance occurs
D)Reduced risk of hydroplaning event
💡 Explanation
During landing, malfunctioning anti-lock brakes can cause wheel lockup, resulting in a skid propagated by kinetic friction forces because the **static friction threshold** is exceeded; therefore, tire wear increases and braking effectiveness reduces considerably, rather than experiencing improved control.
