Which outcome results when Viking longship ropes experience excessive cyclic loading?

A)Rope fibers exhibit progressive failure
B)Sailcloth experiences increased permeability
C)Hull planks undergo intensified corrosion
D)Oar synchronicity will acutely improve

💡 Explanation

Excessive longship rope cyclic loading initiates fatigue, because repeated stress exceeding the *endurance limit* causes progressive micro-crack growth. Therefore, rope fibers fail gradually, rather than sail or hull deterioration, under those rope stress conditions.
