Which risk increases with increased flow velocity past an aircraft wing, causing boundary layer separation?

💡 Explanation

Adverse pressure gradients induce boundary layer separation because reduced momentum from a turbulent boundary layer (high Reynolds number) cannot overcome the increasing pressure. Therefore, separation risk increases, rather than stabilized flow or reduced drag, due to pressure resistance overcoming momentum.
