Which risk increases near a ship's propeller when wake turbulence intensifies?

💡 Explanation

Increased wake turbulence causes rapid pressure fluctuations near the propeller, therefore vapour bubbles form and collapse violently as the *cavitation* mechanism erodes the blades faster rather than simply inducing higher drag because the pressure changes are localized.
