2) A ship of 110 m long, floats on an even keel at a draught of 5.5 m and displaces 5500 tonnes. 50
tonnes of cargo already on board is then shifted in a position 20 m aft of amidships. The center of
flotation is 2 m aft of amidships and MCTC 85 tonnes.m. Calculate the longitudinal metacentric height
and the final draughts.
3) A box-shaped vessel,110 m long and 12 m beam,displaces 7500 tonnes, and has the following
hydrostatic data: CP = 0.70, CM = 0.97. A ballast water is added in an empty midship compartment
which has a dimensions of l×12×8 m. Calculate the length of the compartment if the mean draught is
8.9 m after the parallel sinkage.

Let ‘l’ be the length of the compartment ;
weight available for sea water w= γ×b×l×h=1.025×l×12×8=98.4×l tons
