What do the letters ML in the attached diagram mean & what is it used for ?

It is the longitudinal metacentre and is used when calculations involving trim are considered.

It is a figure showing how an Inclining Experiment is done.

It is the transverse metacentre and is used with inclinations of heel & list .

If the forward draught of a vessel is greater than the aft draught, what state of trim is the vessel in?

The vessel is trimmed by the head.

The vessel is said to be finely balanced.

The vessel is said to be on even keel.

The vessel is trimmed by the stern.

What are the "Stresses" that effect a ship?

Mainly tensile, compressive and bending stresses.

Heavy cargoes such as iron ore, steel billets and other ores with low stowage factors.

The ageing process of a vessel in heavy weather.

Rust and general wear & tear, when accompanied by poor maintenance.

What is a "Shear Force" in a ship?

A vertical force at the point at which a load is being carried, with the force being the difference between upward and downward thrust.

A violent sideways motion in heavy weather, which can cause a vessel to shear violently.

A very powerful wind force, such as that experienced in a tropical revolving storm.

It is the total weight applied at a recognised "weaker" part of a ship , such as where the Main Deck meets the superstructure.

What is a "Bending Moment" in a ship?

A beam bends by placing weights on either side of it. The "Moment" is calculated by multiplying the weight applied by the respective distance.

The process of lifting a heavy object, by squatting first, before applying an upward lifting motion with one's arms & legs.

The method of applying a superior force to a metal object, to bend or shape said object to the way you want it.

This is another name for hogging, and it occurs when there is too much weight at either end.

What is a "Metacentre?"

It is the intersecting point between the vertical lines through the centre of buoyancy in the initial and slightly listed positions.

It is the position between the centre of gravity and the centre of buoyancy.

When a vessel heels over so that the low side touches the sea, that point is the metacentre.

When a vessel is in a vertical position, the metacentre is the point below the centre of buoyancy.

What is a "Moment", in terms of stability?

It is the product of force and distance.

The time taken to perform an Inclining Experiment.

It refers to the weight loaded daily.

The consequence of overloading.

What is the "formula" for calculating the righting moment of a ship?

It is the GZ multiplied by the displacement in tonnes.

There is no specific formula for this purpose.

It is the product of the ship's displacement multiplied by the BM.

It is the GM multiplied by the displacement in tonnes.

What happens when a weight is loaded on board the vessel?

When loading or discharging a weight off the centreline, the shift of G must be resolved into both vertical & horizontal components.

The vessel lists momentarily to the opposite side to which the weight has been loaded.

There is a dramatic shift in G, causing the vessel to become momentarily unstable.

There is no change whatsoever in the stability of the vessel. Everything remains as it is.

What is the "Principle of Suspended Weights''?

When a weight is suspended from a ship's derrick, its centre of gravity is considered as being at the derrick head.

When a weight is suspended from a derrick, its centre of gravity is considered as being at the heel of the derrick.

When a weight is suspended from a derrick ever increasing pressure is exerted on the cargo runner and thus it may part.

When a weight is suspended from a derrick, personnel working in the vicinity should be warned "not to stand under it".

What is a "Ship's Rolling Period''?

It is the time in seconds taken by a vessel to complete a roll i.e port to starboard and back to port.

It is the time taken in seconds for a vessel to complete a roll, either to starboard or to port.

It is the time in seconds between a vessel pitching downwards and returning to the upright.

It is the time in seconds of the downward or upward pitch.

What is the "Change of Trim''?

It is the difference between the original trim and the final trim.

It is the term used to describe leveling and bagging grain in a slack hold.

It is another term used to describe the change of draft.

It is the moment required to change the trim by one centimetre.

What is the "Centre of Flotation or Tipping Centre" of a vessel?

It is the geometrical centre of the waterplane and also the point about which the vessel trims.

It is the exact mid point of the ship, around which the vessel trims as weights are added or taken away.

It is a fixed known point on the longitudinal metacentre.

It is the point on which the vessel initially rests, when being drydocked.

What is "relative or specific gravity?"

The density of a substance, compared to the density of fresh water.

The mathematical factor needed to calculate the vessel's displacement.

It is the density of fresh water.

It is the density of sea or salt water.

Which letters signify the metacentric height on the diagram?

The metacentric height is represented by the letters "GM ".

The metacentric height is represented by the letters " BM ".

The metacentric height is not shown on this diagram.

The metacentric height is represented by the letter " M ".

What does fresh water allowance or " FWA " mean?

The amount the vessel may submerge it's maximum salt water draft by, when loading in fresh water.

The maximum amount of fresh water a fully laden vessel is allowed to carry.

The amount of fresh water that may be consumed by each crew member daily, during rationing.

The amount the laden fresh water draft must be reduced by, to equal the maximum allowed laden salt water draft.

What is the principle of Archimedes?

That every floating body displaces it's own weight of the liquid in which it floats.

That every body that floats displaces at least twice its own weight in water.

That a floating body becomes unstable, if the density of the water it is floating in exceeds the specific gravity of salt water.

That a floating body must be completely watertight, in order for it to float.

What is "reserve buoyancy" in relation to a vessel?

The watertight volume above the waterline.

The watertight volume of a vessel, which is below the waterline.

The total volume of a fully laden ship.

The watertight volume of the engine room and store rooms.

What is the equilibrium state of the vessel in this diagram?

The vessel is in a state of stable equilibrium.

The vessel is in a state of neutral equilibrium.

The ship is in a state of unstable equilibrium.

The vessel is in a state of semi - equilibrium.
