Solutions: 1. Tan = 8/9 = 0.8889 The limit is 41.6

18 m

8m Waterline 41.6 9m 14m

2. i. B2/12d

ii.

I/V

3. BM = 7.5 x 104 / (20,000/1.025) = 3.84375 m Tan = (2GM/BM) = (2 x 0.83 / 3.84375) = 0.6572 Angle of Loll = 33.31 4. BM = B2/12d = 12 x 12 / 4 = 3.0 m Tan Tan 25 Tan225 GM = (2GM/BM) = (2x GM/3) = 2/3 GM = Tan225 x 3/2 = 0.3262 (-)
