(409) Increased friction between moving parts in the oil system
- A.
Accelerates the rate of wear, decreasing the production of wear metal particles.
- B.
Accelerates the rate of wear, increasing the production of wear metal particles.
- C.
Slows the rate of wear, decreasing the production of wear metal particles.
- D.
Slows the rate of wear, increasing the production of wear metal particles.
Correct Answer
B. Accelerates the rate of wear, increasing the production of wear metal particles.Explanation
Increased friction between moving parts in the oil system accelerates the rate of wear, increasing the production of wear metal particles. When there is increased friction, the surfaces of the moving parts rub against each other more vigorously, causing more wear and tear. This increased wear leads to the production of more wear metal particles, which can contaminate the oil and lead to further damage in the system.Rate this question:
