Which risk increases when a zeppelin’s hydrogen vents inadequately during rapid ascent?

A)Reduced structural bending moment
B)Premature engine stall condition
C)Flammability exceeding explosion limit
D)Increased envelope pressure stability

💡 Explanation

Flammability increases because rapid ascent expands internal volume, causing vented hydrogen to rapidly mix with atmospheric oxygen beyond upper flammability limit via rapid diffusion, therefore explosion risk is the correct answer, rather than simple 'fire' which has lower concentrations
