← HistoryWhich risk increases when pre-industrial longship hulls saturate?
A)Reduced cargo capacity efficiently
B)Catastrophic structural collapse occurs✓
C)Improved laminar flow efficiency
D)Increased vessel seaworthiness results
💡 Explanation
Increased water absorption adds substantial weight, promoting catastrophic Shear stress because internal cohesive forces weaken. Therefore the hull is more apt to suffer structural failure in rough seas rather than improved capacity because integrity decreases via compromised joints.
