Bulk Liquids & Surge第 7 / 60 题
How does a tank vehicle's high center of gravity affect driving?
a.It makes the vehicle more likely to roll over
b.It improves braking on wet roads
c.It lowers the risk of rollover
d.It has no effect on a loaded tank
解析
Tank vehicles have a high center of gravity, meaning much of the weight is carried high off the road. This makes the vehicle top-heavy and easy to roll over. Liquid surge combined with a high center of gravity makes tankers especially prone to tipping in curves and sudden maneuvers.
