Find the moment of statical stability when a ship of 10450 tonnes displace ment is heeled 6 degrees if the GM is 0.5m.

Find the moment of statical stability when a ship of 10450 tonnes displace ment is heeled 6 degrees if the GM is 0.5m.

Reference: Ship Stability for Masters & Mates (6^th edition), Exercise – 15.3

 

Solution:

Moment of Statical Stability = w*GMSin θ

                                               = 10450 * 0.5 * Sin6⁰

                                               = 546.16 tons-m
