Diagram for question 644
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 30 tons. The 30 ton capacity pedestal cranes shown in the illustration D047DG can lift a maximum weight of 30 tons in the single mode. This is because the crane's capacity is directly stated as 30 tons, and the single mode refers to the crane lifting a single load up to its maximum rated capacity. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) 120 tons exceeds the crane's stated 30 ton capacity. B) 60 tons is double the crane's 30 ton capacity. D) 15 tons is half the crane's 30 ton capacity.
