One effect of detonation is

A. Delay in ignition

B. Loss of power

C. Overheating of engine

D. Overcooling of engine

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

When detonation occurs, the fuel charge ignites quickly in an uncontrolled explosion, causing a pounding or hammering force on the piston rather than a steady push.
Moderate to severe detonation could be noticed as engine roughness, vibration or loss of power and eventually engine damage.
