Question From Readers #17: Calculate Righting Arm Of A Vessel

Calculate The Righting Arm

Calculate the righting arm of a vessel whose GM is 0.65 m when inclined at an angle of 12°.


Given:

                      GM = 0.65 m
Angle of Inclination = 12°

Solution:

Righting Arm = GM x Sin Angle of Inclination
                    = 0.65 m x Sin 12°
                    = 0.135 meter is the answer
