🔍 Key Concepts

• Ship stability and loading terminology • Difference between permanent (fixed) weights and temporary/adjustable weights • Use of sea water in tanks during structural testing or loading simulations

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Is this type of load something that is always there, or something that can be added and removed for testing or simulation? • Which term would best describe sea water that is intentionally pumped in to imitate heavier environmental forces, not part of the vessel’s normal cargo or structure? • Think about standard loading categories: deadweight, lightship, variable loads. Where would this kind of test water logically fit?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option clearly indicates a temporary, controllable load rather than something permanent. • Eliminate any choice that suggests the weight is part of the ship’s structure or normal fixed equipment. • Check which term is used in stability/strength discussions to describe water added to simulate additional loading conditions without being cargo.
