🔍 Key Concepts

• Transverse moment = weight × transverse distance from centerline • How to update a sum of moments when an additional weight is added • Using the Stores & Supplies (Table 6) to find the correct transverse arm for the paint locker

💭 Think About

• From Sample Load Form #4, find the existing total transverse moment for Stores & Supplies and note it • Identify the transverse distance (arm) of the paint locker from the centerline in Table 6 • Multiply the paint’s weight by this transverse arm, then add that product to the original Stores & Supplies total to get the new sum of transverse moments

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you are using the correct arm for the paint locker from Table 6 (port or starboard, and correct distance) • Confirm that you convert the weight correctly (tons as given on the exam form) before multiplying by the arm • After adding the new moment to the original total, check that your result is reasonable in size and matches one of the answer choices
