Yeah, that was what I was afraid of. I have uploaded my solution here if it could have anyones interest. Thank you very much sophiecentaur!

Thanks. I have just uploaded the assignment as an pdf. The only information I have is the hydrostatic data... Don't know if you can see it?

In the attached pdf it is assignment 4.4 where I have some trouble finding the reduction of the GMt (centre of gravity to meta center height)

I'm not sure what CM stands for... I'm used to danish notaions :) Can you maybe exlpain, please?

Yes, the tank is placed at the very bottom of the hull

The weight of the ship is 6000 tonne as mentioned in the text.

Yes, if it was of the tank. But I want the new centre of gravity for the ship...

I've thought of using the formula: GG2 = q*d/disp GG2 = change of centre of gravity q = mass moved d = distance moved disp = displacement of the ship But cannot figure out what would be the right q and d since it is not quit a relocation of mass?

Hi, I'm trying to figure out the equivalent change of the Centre of Gravity when an amount of liquid is reduced. This could be a fuel oil tank on a ship. In other words, if I e.g. reduce the content what would be the equivalent vertical change of Centre of Gravity on a ship with a total...
