History

Which outcome was enhanced when mariners used the Kamal?

A)Celestial position angular resolution
B)Local apparent time calculation
C)Ship's draught hydrodynamic stability
D)Sail-making textile strength analysis

💡 Explanation

Kamal navigation involves aligning a string with stars; therefore, the increased distance improves celestial position angular resolution due to parallax reduction, rather than directly aiding in calculating timekeeping, hull stability, or sail manufacture like other possible alternatives.
