Which risk escalates when spacecraft thrusters provide continuous thrust while simultaneously increasing in relativistic mass?

A)Increased communication signal propagation delay
B)Escalating electrical power generation required
C)Runaway shortening rocket stage burn-time
D)Amplified mechanical stress along spacecraft structure

💡 Explanation

Amplified mechanical stress results because the thrust coupled with increasing relativistic mass produces larger acceleration. Therefore, greater mechanical strain develops along the structural elements, rather than communication lag, because stages do not burn shorter.
