Which mechanical risk increased when Mesopotamians utilized bronze saws for cutting limestone blocks?

💡 Explanation

Faster workpiece abrasion results from the limestone’s abrasiveness degrading the relatively soft bronze during cutting, thus this increases abrasion failure, because saw's inherent material properties. Therefore, higher abrasion rather than cold welding or crystal defects, occurs in hard stones.
