🔍 Key Concepts

• Free surface effect and how liquid moves in a partially filled tank • How shifting liquid affects the ship's center of gravity (G) and transverse stability (GM) • Difference between static weight changes (like draft or trim) and moving liquid surfaces inside tanks

💭 Think About

• Which option actually creates a free surface — that is, a surface where liquid can move or slosh from side to side inside the vessel? • In which situation does the liquid’s movement cause a shift in the center of gravity every time the vessel heels? • Which choices talk about the vessel’s position in the water (draft/trim) only, and which talk about what’s happening inside the tank?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option involves a partially filled tank, allowing liquid to move • Eliminate options that only change draft or trim without mentioning liquid moving inside • Remember: free surface effect is about liquid moving inside the vessel, not water moving outside around the hull
