Question 945Rules of the Road90% to pass
BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND A 95 meter vessel aground is required to sounds which fog signal?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) A rapid ringing of a bell for 5 seconds, preceded and followed by three separate and distinct strokes on the bell every minute.
This is the correct answer because under both the International and Inland Navigation Rules, a vessel aground is required to sound a fog signal consisting of a rapid ringing of a bell for 5 seconds, preceded and followed by three distinct strokes on the bell, repeated every minute.
The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the required fog signal for a vessel aground. Option B describes a prolonged whistle blast, option C describes a different bell signal pattern, and option D describes a whistle signal that is not the correct fog signal for a vessel aground.
