Q7

Which one of the following statement correctly describe the purpose of the limited slip differential (LSD).

A.
When there is a large difference between the speeds of the left and right side gears, the LSD reverses the operation of the differential mechanism so that a sufficient amount of drive torque will be delivered to the wheel contacting, the road surface
B.
When there is a large difference between the speeds of the left and right side gears, the LSD reinforces the operation of the differential mechanism so that a sufficient amount of drive torque will be delivered to the wheel contacting the road surface
C.
When there is a large difference between the speeds of the left and right side gears, the LSD restricts the operation of the differential mechanism so that a sufficient amount of drive torque will still be delivered to the slower, driving wheel
Answer
D.
When there is a large difference between the speeds of the left and right side gears, the LSD halts the operation of the differential mechanism so that a sufficient amount of drive torque will still be delivered to the slower, driving wheel
