← HistoryWhich consequence results when the gunpowder reaction rate increases within a Congreve rocket?
A)Increased rocket trajectory stability
B)Decreased burning time efficiency
C)Elevated nozzle ablation risks✓
D)Minimized rocket payload capacity
💡 Explanation
Increased gunpowder reaction raises temperature via increased kinetic energy therefore accelerating nozzle material degradation arising from thermal stress, rather than payload reduction because temperature is dominant.
