Which risk increases for a depleted uranium (DU) penetrator upon impact?

💡 Explanation

The risk of pyrophoric dust increases due to adiabatic heating and friction leading to oxidation during impact; this is due to uranium isotopes' specific electron arrangement during rapid air exposure, rather than reduced emissions because only isotopic ratio shift affects decay rate rather than mechanical properties or full alpha cessation.
