Which risk increases when a ship's hull experiences corrosion?

💡 Explanation

Reduced cathodic protection surfaces occur because corrosion increases the surface area requiring protection, thus diminishing the electric field gradient's ability to inhibit oxidation, rather than capacitance increase or wave amplification; therefore, less protection.
