Water Supply & DistributionCâu 36 / 120

a.3/4 in
b.1 in
c.1-1/4 in
d.2 in
Giải thích
Twice the effective opening is 2 x 0.375 = 0.75 in, but the code sets an absolute minimum air gap of 1 in, so 1 in governs. The 3/4 in answer applies the 2x rule without checking the minimum. The 1-1/4 in and 2 in values are larger than anything the rule produces for a 3/8 in opening.
