Question 916 Deck Safety

The correct answer is A) produce a straight stream. When the handle of an all-purpose nozzle is pulled all the way back, it will produce a straight stream of water. This is because the all-purpose nozzle is designed to provide different spray patterns by adjusting the handle position. Pulling the handle all the way back opens the nozzle fully, resulting in a high-pressure, straight stream of water, which is useful for long-distance application or penetration. The other options are incorrect because: B) shutting off the water would be the result of closing the nozzle completely, not pulling it all the way back; C) and D) producing high-velocity or low-velocity fog would require partially opening the nozzle to create a spray pattern, not a straight stream.
