🔍 Key Concepts

• Free surface effect in partially filled tanks • How liquid moves inside a tank when the vessel heels • Difference in stability between full, empty, and partially filled tanks

💭 Think About

• When a vessel heels, in which tank condition can the liquid move the most and shift its center of gravity? • Which tank condition causes the greatest reduction in metacentric height (GM) due to free surface effect? • Compare how a fully pressed-up tank and an empty tank behave versus a tank where the liquid can slosh side to side.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option allows the liquid to move freely and create a free surface • Eliminate any option where the liquid cannot move significantly when the vessel heels • Confirm which condition is known to reduce stability rather than improve it
