1. M.V. Hindship arrives a SW port with displacement 12,400 t has GM (fluid) 0.
58m and FSM 1530 t-
m. She then loads 620 tons of cargo in No,2 Hold, pumps out SW ballast from No.2 DB tank P&S
which contained 50 t each. Calculate her final GM (fluid). Final GM(f)=0.711m
2. A ship of 13750 tons displacement, GM = 0.75 m, 2
is listed 2.5° degrees to starboard and has
yet to load 250 tons of cargo. There is space available in each side of No. 3 between deck
(Centre of gravity, 6.1 m out from the Centre- line). Find how much cargo to load on each side
if the ship is to be upright on completion of loading. NO.3TD port= 161.97 tons
NO.3TD Stbd= 88.03 tons
3. When a ship of 12 000 tons displacement is heeled 5.25° the moment of statical stability is
300 tons m, KG 7.5 m. Find the height of the metacenter above the keel KM =7.773m
4. A ship at port has displacement of 19617 tons and KG=7.27m. A weight of 500 tons is shifted
from lower hold (Kg=5.0m) to Upper deck Kg=13.28m. Find the final GM fluid if KM and FSC in
the final condition are 8.43m and 0.07m. GM= 0.949m
