Which outcome occurs when a hydraulic system exceeds design pressure?

💡 Explanation

Catastrophic failure results because exceeding design pressure means hoop stress surpasses material limits. The excessive force causes pipe rupture driven by hoop stress rather than viscosity or pressure drop within design limits, because those effects increase linearly.
