As angle of attack increases from zero, lift:
A
Decreases linearly
B
Increases approximately linearly until the critical (stall) angle
C
Remains constant
D
Increases exponentially without limit
B
Increases approximately linearly until the critical (stall) angle✓ Correct Answer
Explanation
CL increases roughly linearly with angle of attack up to the critical angle, after which flow separation causes CL to decrease (stall).
