← ScienceWhich consequence results when an aircraft accumulates excess static charge?
A)Radio interference increases significantly✓
B)Fuel tank corrosion accelerates rapidly
C)Structural icing becomes insurmountable
D)Engine thrust inexplicably diminishes
💡 Explanation
An aircraft accumulating static charge leads to increased radio interference because strong electric fields generated cause repeated electrostatic discharge events, notably through corona discharge; therefore, radio communication is disrupted rather than accelerated fuel corrosion, which arises from chemical processes.
