In comparison to a vertical sling, how much strength does a basket have?

Same
Half
Double
Triple

The correct answer is: Double

A vertical sling and a basket are both types of lifting slings used to carry and lift heavy loads. A vertical sling can only be used for vertical lifting, while a basket can be used for both vertical and horizontal lifting. As a result, a basket has more functionality and versatility, making it stronger than a vertical sling. This is why a basket has double the strength of a vertical sling. Option A is incorrect because a vertical sling and basket cannot have the same strength due to their different functions. Option B is incorrect because a basket is stronger than a vertical sling, not half as strong. Option D is incorrect because while a basket is stronger than a vertical sling, it is not triple the strength. Overall, choosing option C is the best comparison in terms of strength between a vertical sling and a basket.
