Spoilers used for roll control work by

  • A.Increasing lift on the wing that is to rise
  • B.Deflecting the rudder automatically
  • C.Changing the wing's sweep
  • D.Reducing lift on the wing that is to descend

Answer: D

Raising a spoiler destroys part of the lift on that wing and rolls the aeroplane towards it. Because spoilers add drag on the inside of the turn they produce favourable rather than adverse yaw, which is a useful secondary benefit.
