← TechnologyWhich risk increases when a morphing wing aircraft experiences icing?
A)Decreased stall angle of attack✓
B)Elevated engine combustion temperatures
C)Reduced magnetic field shielding
D)Increased structural frame elasticity
💡 Explanation
Icing causes a rougher wing surface, disrupting airflow; therefore flow separation occurs earlier lowering stall angle because it disrupts the boundary layer adhesion, causing decreased lift, rather than stable airflow or altered frame properties.
