Answer 5
Given:-
1. Cargo shifted (w) =500t
2. D = 15m ↓
3. Displacement (W) = 10000t

GG’ = 500 * 15
10000
GG’ = 0.75m↓
KG of the ship will decrease because cargo has been shifted vertically downwards.

Final KG of vessel is 10.8m
Answer 7
Given:-
1. Displacement (W) = 9009t
2. KG of ship = 8.7m
3. Final KG required = 9m
4. KG of Upper Deck = 15m
w=?
Displacement = 9009t
KG = 15m
KG = 8.7m
Let cargo to be loaded = w
KG upper deck =15m
KG of vessel =-8.7m
D↑ = 6.3m
Final KG required = 9m
KG of vessel =-8.7m
GG’ ↑ = 0.3m
GG’ = w * d

0.3 = w * 6.3
9009 + w
0.3(9009+w) = 6.3w
2702.7 + 0.3w = 6.3w
2702.7 = 6.3w – 0.3w
2702.7 = 6w
2702.7 = w
