After unplugging a suspected damaged printed circuit board from its edge card connector, what may be revealed by slightly flexing the board?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Mechanical stress testing of PCBs (printed circuit boards) • How small, nearly invisible damage behaves when a board is bent or flexed • Difference between visible, obvious damage and subtle, hidden damage

💭 Think About

• When you slightly flex a circuit board, which kind of defect is most likely to open up, separate, or become more visible? • Which listed problems would you usually see even without flexing the board? • Think about what "hairline" versus "complete" or "warped" damage means in terms of visibility.

✅ Before You Answer

• Focus on the keyword slightly flexing the board and what that action is meant to reveal. • Ask yourself which option describes damage that is hard to see until the board is stressed. • Eliminate any choices that would be obviously visible before flexing the board.
