A ship of 5000 tonnes displacement has KG 4.2m and KM 4.5m, and is listed 5 degrees to port. Assuming that the KM remains constant, find the final list if 80 tonnes of bunkers are loaded in No. 2 starboard tank whose centre of gravity is 1 metre above the keel and 4 metres out from the centreline.

In the given question we use the concept of stability of a ship by finding GM and GG1
We can calculate final listing
