How many low-velocity spray applicators are required on the weather decks of a tankship?

A One
B Two
C Three
D Four
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) Four low-velocity spray applicators are required on the weather decks of a tankship. This requirement is specified in the regulations governing tankships in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 46, Section 32.56-15. The regulation states that a minimum of four low-velocity spray applicators must be installed on the weather decks of a tankship to provide fire protection. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not meet the regulatory requirement of four low-velocity spray applicators. A single applicator or two applicators would be insufficient, while three applicators would not satisfy the minimum four required by the regulations.
