Question
A ship of displacement 36000 tonne carries oil fuel in four tanks 16.0 m long and 6.0 m broad, the tanks arranged with their length in the fore and aft direction. The specific gravity of the oil is 0.84, and the density of seawater in
which the ship is floating is 1020 kgm-3. For a ship of this size, the metacentric height is at least 500 mm. What is the reduction of the metacentric height of the ship because of the oil that is contained in the tanks and how serious is this reduction? Please discuss further your conclusions.

Determine the hydrostatic force acting on a vertical trapezoidal section whose upper base is flushed parallel to the liquid surface. The top base measures 2 m and the lower base is twice the length of its top. One of its remaining side is upright vertical while the other is inclined 45° with the horizontal. Calculate as well the location of its center of pressure. 6 m 2.
