Approximately how far had the royal Swedish warship, the Vasa, sailed before she sank on 10 August 1628?

Question

A1,300 m (4,200 ft)

B30,000 nautical miles

C130,000 nautical miles

D13 m (42 ft)

Select from the options above.

Correct Option: 1  

Explanation:
1,300 m (4,200 ft)
The elaborate and heavily armed Vasa foundered just outside the harbour on her maiden voyage. The problem was ascribed to her being very top heavy and to the fact that the many gun ports were open (to fire a celebratory salute).
