← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when an aircraft's aileron control cable snaps during flight?
A)Uncontrollable rolling motion begins✓
B)Rudder becomes locked in place
C)Elevator effectiveness significantly increases
D)Engine thrust automatically reduces
💡 Explanation
When the aileron cable snaps, control is lost because the mechanical linkage is broken, preventing coordinated roll control, leading to an uncontrollable rolling motion. Therefore, rolling motion results, rather than rudder lock, elevator increase, or thrust reduction, which involve different control systems.
