← ScienceWhich increased risk occurs when thrust equals weight?
A)Aircraft stalls causing loss of altitude✓
B)The propeller suffers catastrophic mechanical failure
C)Compressor surge causes engine flameout
D)Fuel consumption causes flight termination
💡 Explanation
Aircraft stall at thrust=weight increases because the *equivalence principle* couples acceleration forces and gravitational forces; therefore, a loss of airspeed results in stall rather than stable flight; alternatives involve independent component failures or non-equivalence relationships.
