Which outcome would occur given longship hogging during extreme wave conditions?

💡 Explanation

Viking longships, experiencing hogging, causes their masts to endure increased bending stress, because the wave support shifts significantly. Therefore, masts break under load before hull failure because the hull benefits from distributed support on the water, rather than concentrated load at a point.
