The water mass of that is displaced by the stem is recorded amid X and Y, which is hence equivalent to My
— Mx kilograms. About 1000kg of the water (fresh) used inhabit a cubic of a metre, which assists measure
the stem volume. The stem (figure 1) volume is measured between X and Y as presented in figure one
above, which is equal to Related Categories

= (My – Mx / 1000L) sq m
Now let the hydrometer float in water of density ρ kg/m3 with the waterline ‘x’ metres below Y:
In this equation, My, Mx and L are known constants whilst ρ and x are variables. As a result, to spot the
gauge it is now simply essential to select numerous standards of ρ and to calculate the corresponding
values of x.

2 x weights A&B (1.8t each) are placed 2.2m each side of the LCB (v/l in equilibrium)
If the weight A is moved back to the original position and a new weight of 10t is loaded amidships with a
CG of 3m.
Solution
From 1b LCB is 22.72, when weight A & B are added to the vessel it remains at equilibrium, when weight A
is shifted to weight B LCB shifts by 3m to 19.72
When weight A moves back to its original position, it has a distance d1 from the new LCB
Weight B that remained at its original position has a distance d2 from the new LCB

Q1d
Explain how a KN (SZ) curve is used to determine the vessel’s stability data?
The processof developing a cross curve of the stability of the ship occurs through one plotting the
assumed height with the righting levers. The height is determined by the gravity center that occurs beyond
the keel (Barrass & Derrett, 2011). The constructed curves are also assumed in other cases a KG of zero.
The developed curves are identified as KN curves where KN is perceived as the righting lever that is
usually determined from the keel.
The displacement and KG values righting levers are obtained where the KN value is first attained through
the inspection of the curves displacement value. When one subtracts the KN values the appropriate
righting levers are also determined, which is an equal correction of the sin heel and the KG product.
In Figure b, let KN signify the ordinate acquired from the curves. In addition, let the ship’s centre of gravity
be at G so that KG characterizes the genuine elevation of the centre of gravity beyond the keel and GZ
embodies the distance (L) of the righting lever.
GZ =KN — G sin
θ
Thus, to determine the righting lever one must use the KN and KG. That is; the ordinate of the KN should
be subtracted from the KG sin heel correction equal.
Then using the vessel’s calculated displacement from 1b and the KN (SZ) curve provided below for this
small commercial work boat. (KS is 3.193m)
Draw the vessel’s GZ curve of statical stability and state the maximum GZ value?

Q1e
Calculate the MCT 1 cm and the new draughts forward and aft for this vessel.
Solution
BML = L2 /12d
= 1002 / 12 *6
= 138. 89m
The distance BG should be recorded, which is small when correlating it to the GML and BML distances on
the stem. Therefore, for this motive, there is a high probability that BML has an appreciable error that is
occasionally replaced for GML in the method developed of calculating MCT 1 cm.
