Which of the following is the best reason for opening the air cock when draining a water-tube boiler?
Water flows out of the boiler too rapidly with the air cock closed.
With the air cock open, the boiler drains without producing a vacuum.
Air coming into the boiler will help dry out the boiler's surface.
Air mixed with the water will create a cleansing effect in the tubes.
