Which extinguisher has an approximate discharge duration of 10-11 seconds?

• A. 60 seconds
• B. 5 seconds
• C. 10-11 seconds
• D. 40 seconds

Answer: (C)

Discharge duration is the amount of time you can spray the extinguisher before it runs dry. Different sizes and types of extinguishers hold varying amounts of agent, so their spray times differ. An approximate 10–11 seconds is typical for a mid‑sized handheld extinguisher, which means the option that states 10–11 seconds matches the expected spray duration. The other durations correspond to different extinguisher sizes or types and would not fit the specified time, so the one listing 10–11 seconds is the correct match.
