Question 1: Simpson's rule (20 marks) A vessel 140m long vessel has half-breadths of waterplane area at 14m intervals as follows: L[m] (AP)0 15 30 45 60 75 90 105 120 135 (FP) 150 Half-breadth [m] 2.1 6.2 9.3 10.7 11.0 11.0 11.0 10.5 8.5 5.5 0.0 (a) Determine the vessel's waterplane area and the position of the longitudinal centre of floatation relative to amidships. (b) Determine the longitudinal second moment of area of the waterplane area relative to amidships. (c) Using your answer from (b), find the vesseľs longitudinal second moment of area of the waterplane about the centre of floatation. (d) Determine the transverse second moment of area of the waterplane area relative to the centreline.
