I assume you meant "BOAT"A boat floats because it displaces water... put a boat in the water and it sinks into the surface of the water...the part of the boat beneath water level pushes water out of the way.When the weight of the water pushed out of the way is the same as the weight of the boat, the boat can sink no further.Tho made of steel or other heavy materials, naval architects calculate displacement ( the weight of water the ship's hull pushes out of the way ) as long as the ship weighs Less than the water it displaces, it will safely float.The difference between the weight of the boat and the weight of water it displaces will determine how much Cargo a boat can carry.
if the water is moving then it will exert a force on the side of the boat. Still water will not move a boat.
procedure for help boat float in water
This is simply because of the weight of the water versus the weight of the boat. The water push upward with a force equal to the weight of the water the boat push away. It is self stabilizing. The deeper the boat lie, the more water it push away, and the more will the water push back at the boat. Of course, if you fill the boat, then it will most likely sink, but here again it depends on what material the boat is made of. If the total volume of materials in boat weigh less than equal volume of water, the boat will still be floating.
The science is called "displacement". If the shape of the boat allows the amount of the boat in the water to be less weight than the water it displaces it will float. If the amount of the boat in the water weighs more than the water it displaces it will sink.
Multiply boat length (in feet) by boat width (in feet), then divide by 15.
The length is "stem to stern" or "bow to transom", and the width is "beam to beam".
A 21 foot boat refers to the length of the boat. There is not comparison between length and width. It could be narrow as on narrow boats or wide as in sea faring boats,
Depends on the width and length.
to calculate the recommended occupancy for any boat under 20ft: length times width divided by 15 L x W / 15 = Maximum occupancy
I work for a marina, its called length waterline
length of boat: 115-120 ft width of boat: 12ft length of oars: 8-8.5 ft height of boat: 8.5 ft distance between oars 2ft 9in
Utnapishtim survived when he was told to build a boat, its length as great as its width.
Multiply width by length to get the area. The answer would be 128 square feet assuming the boat is square..
This can vary depending on the width and weight of your boat. Check with the manufacturer or dealer to see what size or model they recomend.
width of 12 foot aluminum boat
Its called buoyancy When a solid surface such as a boats hull is placed into water, it will only sink if first is heavy enough to fall into the water and second, if the water is able to fill it up and make it heavy in the first place.
