🔍 Key Concepts

• Free surface effect in ship stability • Difference between solid weight and liquid with a moving surface • How liquids in partially filled tanks affect stability and trim

💭 Think About

• Which choice sounds like it describes a condition where liquid can move around and shift as the vessel moves? • Which terms are clearly related to buoyancy or draft and not to moving liquid surfaces? • Think about what we call water in a compartment that is not completely full and can slosh from side to side.

✅ Before You Answer

• Eliminate any term that is mainly about how deep the ship sits in the water • Eliminate any term that is mainly about extra buoyancy above the waterline • Focus on the term that would be used in discussing free surface effect and reduced stability in partially filled tanks or spaces
