Which outcome occurs when hydraulic fluid viscosity increases within an excavator arm?

A)Reduced actuator response time
B)Increased fluid flow velocity
C)Decreased pump energy consumption
D)Minimized internal component stresses

💡 Explanation

Reduced actuator response time results because increased hydraulic fluid viscosity elevates fluid resistance, driving momentum transfer reduction via viscous dissipation rather than direct transmission; therefore delays occur, rather than increased flow, because less energy translates to velocity; and dissipation, not pressure increase, dominates impact.
