Question 188 Deck Safety
70% to passWhat is the radiotelephone urgency signal?
A
securite
B
seelonce feenee
C
mayday
D
pan pan
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) pan pan. The radiotelephone urgency signal is "pan pan," which indicates a state of urgency where there is a serious problem and assistance is needed, but the situation does not pose an immediate danger to life or the vessel. This is less severe than the "mayday" distress signal, which indicates a life-threatening emergency. The other options are incorrect: "securite" is the safety signal, "seelonce feenee" is the radiotelephone signal to cease all non-essential communications, and "mayday" is the distress signal for immediate life-threatening situations.
