Which outcome occurs when a propeller's rotational speed considerably exceeds design limits?

💡 Explanation

Exceeding propeller speed causes a dramatic pressure drop, triggering cavitation because the accelerated flow causes turbulent eddies leading to vapor bubble formation and collapse. Therefore, cavitation occurs, rather than improved thrust, where damage predominates rather than benefits.
