History

Which risk increases when a dragonship's sail experiences prolonged saltwater immersion?

A)Reduced sailcloth tensile strength
B)Increased mast bending stiffness
C)Decreased hull hydrodynamic resistance
D)Improved wind capture efficiency

💡 Explanation

Reduced sailcloth tensile strength occurs because prolonged saltwater immersion facilitates hydrolytic degradation of the sailcloth fibers, therefore the material weakens, rather than strengthening or affecting the mast or hull. This degradation results from hydrolysis.
