Each compartment holds a smaller amount of liquid, which limits how much can surge at once

Show answer

Correct answer to question 24 (Tank Vehicles): Each compartment holds a smaller amount of liquid, which limits how much can surge at once

Why

Splitting the load across separate compartments means no single section holds the tank's full volume, so the surge from any one compartment is naturally smaller than from one large tank.
