SOLVE THE FOLLOWING, BE SURE TO SHOW YOUR SOLUTIONS. Use Yellow Pad paper

1. A box shaped vessel floats at a mean draft of 2.1 meters in dock water of density 1.020
kgs./cu.m.. Find the mean draft for the same mass displacement in salt water density of 1.025
kgs./cu.m.

2. A ship of 6,400 displacement is floating in salt water. The ship has to proceed to a berth
where density of water is 1.008 kgs./cu.m.. Find how much cargo must be discharged if she is to
remain at the salt water draft.

3. A vessel displacing 5,800 tons KM 7.0 M, KG 6.0 M has to load a quantity of deck cargoes KG
11.0 M. What is the maximum quantity that she can load so that her GM is not less than 0.75
M.

4. A vessel of 2,400 tons displacement KG 4.20 M loads 4,000 tons timber in the Baltic KM 5.03
M, KG 5.49 M and takes onboard 300 tons bunker KG 1.50 M. On arrival at Tyne, bunkers are all
gone and GM is zero. Vessel loads 1000 tons bunkers KG 2.44 M. Find the GM on leaving Tyne
and on arrival Cape Town. Daily consumption is 20 tons.

5. A ship 126 meters long is floating at drafts 5.5 meters forward and 6.5 meters aft. The center
of floatation is 3 meters abaft of amidships MCT 1 cm 240 tons meters, displacement 6,000
tons. Find the new draft if a weight of 120 tons already onboard is shifted forward a distance of
45 meters.
