Crunning fit
Dtolerance of 0.005 inch
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) interference fit. The illustration GS-0019 indicates that Figure "B" is dimensioned to show an interference fit, which means that the two mating parts are designed to fit together tightly with an overlap in their dimensions. This type of fit is commonly used in mechanical assemblies to ensure a secure and stable connection between components. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the type of fit indicated in the illustration. B) clearance of 0.005 inch would indicate a loose fit, C) running fit would suggest a sliding fit, and D) tolerance of 0.005 inch does not specify the type of fit.
