A ship has a displacement of 4,500 t and a GM of 0.24 m. A weight of 270 t is then loaded (added) on deck, so that its centre of gravity is 5.0 m above that of the ship and the BM is found to be 4.4 m. Calculate the horizontal shift of centre of gravity GG. Given: Horizontal shift of centre of gravity GG1 = (w X d)/A. where w is weight loaded; d is distance of weight loaded and A is new displacement of ship (after weight is loaded).
