Question 905 Deck Safety

70% to pass

The spray of water in low-velocity fog will have _______________.

A lesser range than high-velocity fog
B greater range than high-velocity fog
C greater range than a solid stream
D about the same range as high-velocity fog
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) lesser range than high-velocity fog. The spray of water in low-velocity fog has a shorter range compared to high-velocity fog. This is because the low-velocity spray creates larger water droplets that are more affected by gravity and air resistance, resulting in a shorter effective range. In contrast, high-velocity fog produces smaller water droplets that can travel farther due to reduced air resistance. The other options are incorrect because B) low-velocity fog does not have a greater range than high-velocity fog, C) a solid stream of water would have a greater range than low-velocity fog, and D) the range of low-velocity fog is not about the same as high-velocity fog.
