1. A wooden scow 8m wide, 16m long, and 3m high is transporting in sea water (SG-1.05) carrying a total load of 2000 kN. The cg of the barge is 1.50m from the cg of the portion underwater. If an outside force heels the barge until one side (top) is just submerged in seawater, determine the a. distance in meters from the metacenter to the center of buoyancy b. moment of the wedge shift in kN-m C. moment of the center of buoyancy shift in kN-m d. righting moment or overturning moment in kN-m
