← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when the abrasive grains of a grinding wheel blunt excessively?
A)Increased surface roughness develops quickly✓
B)Improved material removal rates occur
C)Reduced work-piece hardness is observed
D)Wheel wear becomes negligibly slow
💡 Explanation
Increased surface roughness results from a worn grinding wheel because material deformation hardens the surface prior to shear; this is called burnishing. Therefore the surface is rougher, rather than smoother, given blunt abrasives lacking sharp edges, which would cut instead.
