← ScienceWhich risk increases when a submarine ascends rapidly from depth?
A)Failure of radio wave propagation✓
B)Increased risk of hull corrosion
C)Inaccurate inertial navigation readings
D)Damage to propeller cavitation limits
💡 Explanation
Rapid ascent introduces variations in water density hindering radio frequencies using electromagnetic induction; this reduces communication effectiveness because the changing medium disrupts wave propagation. Therefore it will increase the risk of communication, rather than hull corrosion, which depends on material properties.
