Which outcome resulted from 'hogging' along Viking longships navigating open seas?

💡 Explanation

Hogging, a longitudinal bending stress, induced excessive flexing and stress concentration. Therefore, the keel weakened because differential buoyancy forces acting on the hull caused excessive bending along the ship's centerline, rather than other localized damages.
