What is the total number of approved low-velocity spray ("water-fog") applicators required aboard a tankship?

A 4
B 7
C 10
D 11
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) 7. The requirement for the number of approved low-velocity spray ("water-fog") applicators aboard a tankship is specified in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 46, Section 34.20-5. This regulation states that a minimum of 7 such applicators must be provided. The other answer choices are incorrect because 4 (A) is too few, 10 (C) is too many, and 11 (D) is also too many for the regulatory requirement for a tankship.
