// A Textbook of Fluid Mecahnics and Hydraulic Machines - By R K Bansal // Chapter 4-Buoyancy and Floatation //// Problem 4.19 //Given Data Set in the Problem dens=1000 g=9.81 L=70 b=10 w=19620*10^3 theta =6 sw=10104 w1=343.35*10^3 x=6 COB=2.25 H=2.25 //calculations //1) //Meta centric height GM=w1*x/w/tan(theta /180*%pi) mprintf("The meta centric height is %f m \n",GM) //2) //Position of centre of gravity I=0.75*(1/12*L*10^3) //MOI Vol=w/sw //vol of water displaced //from equation for meta centric height ,we get, BG=I/Vol-GM mprintf("The distance of G from the free water surface is %f m \n",H-BG)
