Which risk increases during pipeline weld inspection using phased array ultrasonic testing?

💡 Explanation

Spurious indications increase, because **constructive interference** sums small reflections from grain boundaries, therefore, mimicking flaws as larger defects rather than revealing the true discontinuity, because other options affect signal strength.

• Which limitation is imposed on a Carnot engine when operating with a finite-sized hot reservoir?
• Which outcome occurs during thin-film interference when reflections are in-phase?
• Which outcome arises when atmospheric ducting affects radar propagation?
• Which consequence results when a dielectric of limited thickness limits wave propagation within a parallel-plate waveguide?
• Which process limits hydrogen storage density in metal hydrides at room temperature?
• Which outcome arises as a closed Brayton cycle air compressor approaches its cooling limit during continuous operation?
