The cross-section of the loaded barge of 22 m, with a laden mass of 80 tonnes centred 542 mm above the bottom is shown. Accounting for the radius at the corners, determine the draught h in metres if the water in the canal has a density of 1025 kg/m2 The width of the barge is 3.7 m and the radius of the bottom rounds is 775 mm. Comment on the stability of the barge to tilting. W h Convert all properties to their standard forms for use here. Enter the equation for the X-sectional area of displaced water Aw as a function of h using the labels in the figure as the parameters: Aw: m2 Enter the mass of water displaced: Mw: kg Determine the volume of water displaced by the barge: Vw m3 Hence determine the draught h based on your equation for Aw and the length of the barge L h: m If the centre of buoyancy is 0.583 m above the bottom of the barge is the barge stable?
