Would someone with stability knowledge please show me how to answer this problem. Many thanks
The formula is rlb^3/(12*35).
With r = S.G. of the tank over the S.G. of the water the vessel is floating in, so r = .962/1.026.
l = length of tank: 35 ft ,
b = breadth of tank: 30ft^3,
With a $12 Casio FX-300 ES+ you can enter the entire forumula exactly as it looks in Formulae for the Mariner or some other reference and get the answer in a few seconds.
