(b) Using ballast on a typical bulk carrier which has double bottom tanks with a single centreline division, outline the methods of correcting: (i) an angle of list; (ii) an angle of loll. (© Explain EACH of the following terms: centre of gravity; (i) centre of buoyancy. 2. (@)_A vessel is initially upright with a KG of 9.8m. A heavy lift is stowed on the centreline at Kg 3.0 m and is to be discharged using the ship's own derrick. It will be landed on the quay on the starboard side. Explain, with the aid of a sketch, how the ship's centre of gravity moves in EACH of the following: (when the weight is initially lifted; (ii) when the derrick has slewed to starboard and the weight is suspended over the quay; (tii) as the weight is lowered over the quay and before it touches the ground; (iv) when the weight has been discharged. (b) A general cargo ship is initially floating upright in salt water at a displacement of 14275 1, starboard side alongside, KG (solid) is 7.44 m. At the time there are free surfaces and the total Free Surface Correction is 0.39 m. ‘A 70 t transformer is 1o be loaded using the ship's own derrick, the head of which is 21m above the keel. The transformer is on the quay at a position 12m from the centtreline and will be loaded at Kg 2.95 m and 3 mo starboard of the centreline. “, calculate the maximum angle Using the Datasheet Q2(b) Hydrostatic Particulars’ and direction of list during the loading operation. a (3) a @ @ @ Q @) Q) a2) [OVERSection B 3.
