Question 69Navigation General

The correct answer is C) 14.7 nm. The explanation is as follows: 1. The correct answer is C) 14.7 nm, as this is the approximate range at which you will first sight the navigational light. 2. This is calculated using the formula for the geographic range of a light, which is: √(2 × h1) + √(2 × h2), where h1 is the height of the observer's eye above the water, and h2 is the height of the light above the water. Plugging in the given values, the calculated range is 14.7 nm. 3. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the geographic range of the light based on the provided information.
