Question 2407 Deck General

The correct answer is B) 1.3. The static bollard pull of a tug is measured in tons and consists of the brake horsepower of the tug's engine divided by 100 and multiplied by a factor of 1.3. This formula is based on the standard industry practice and regulation for calculating the static bollard pull of a tug. The other options are incorrect because: A) 0.5 is too low of a factor to accurately represent the static bollard pull. C) 3.0 is too high of a factor and would overestimate the static bollard pull. D) 10 is an unrealistic factor that does not align with the standard industry calculation.
