← ScienceWhich risk increases when aircraft electrostatic discharge protection degrades?
A)Fuel ignition system failure✓
B)Structural material tensile weakening
C)Inertial navigation sensor drift
D)Hypersonic skin ablation risk
💡 Explanation
The risk of fuel ignition increases with degraded discharge protection because electrostatic discharge creates a spark through Capacitive Discharge, potentially igniting fuel vapors; therefore fuel ignition increases, rather than structural weakening because that occurs through corrosion/stress.
