Question 19 Deck General

70% to pass

The "Mode" selector switch can be positioned and select all of the following EXCEPT _______________.

A automatic gyro
B hand-electric steering
C non-followup control
D weather adjustments
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) weather adjustments. The mode selector switch on a ship's steering system is used to select the different steering modes, such as automatic gyro, hand-electric steering, and non-followup control. However, weather adjustments are typically made through separate controls or settings, not through the mode selector switch. The other options (A, B, and C) are all valid steering modes that can be selected using the mode selector switch, but weather adjustments are not a mode that is selected through this switch.
