← HistoryWhich outcome results when historical wooden warships exceeded design displacement?
A)Increased hull stress and hogging✓
B)Decreased maneuverability and speed
C)Reduced draft and stability
D)Compromised ammunition storage capacity
💡 Explanation
Increased displacement on wooden warships led to increased hull stress and hogging because the longitudinal bending moment exceeded the hull's structural capacity. Therefore, the hull deformed, rather than other ship performance parameters becoming directly affected.
