Why does iron ship floats in water?
Because the weight of the water that they displace is greater than the weight of the ship.
Why as a ship in harbour is being unloaded it slowly rises in higher?
the ship floats because its weight per volume (density) is less than water. When unloaded its weight is less and Archimedes principle says a body is equal in weight to the weight of the water it displaces; less weight displaces less water so ship rises
Why does a piece of stone sink in water but a ship with a huge weight floats?
The ship is hollow. The stone isn't. The air trapped inside the ship allows it to float - despite it weight.
Why does the buoyant force keep a ship floating?
The buoyant force on a ship (or any object in a liquid) is equal to the weight of the water the displaces. If this force is greater than the weight of the ship, it will stay afloat.
Which ship displaces more water 1 loaded with a cargo of corks which float or a empty one?
If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.
What side of a ship shows the port light?
If you aboard the ship and you face toward the front of the ship, the port side is the left side of the ship. So, the port side of a ship would show the port light.
Does a ship weigh more or less in the moonlight?
Light has nothing to do with its weight. It weighs the same in moonlight as it does in sunlight.
How do you calculate ship lightweight?
simply, ship has three tonnage weights 1-Displacement :is the actual total weight 2-light weight :ship's hull, machinery and any fixed equipments. 3-dead weight : fuel,water ballast , fresh water , cargo,passenger and stores. then Displacement = Dead Wt + Light Wt displacement can be calculated from Block coefficients at certain drafts from ship hydrostatic curves eng.

How much weight does a ship hold?
The weight of the ship plus the weight of the cargo cannot be greater than the weight of the water displaced

When was Ship of Light created?
Ship of Light was created in 2010-01.
Why does a ship floats on water answer based on archemedis principel?
Weight of ship = weight of (displaced) water.
Why is pumice used for landscaping?
It is very light weight. That makes it easy to move around. And lighter means less cost to ship.
What is function of bow in ship?
it balances the weight of the ship out
How can a Ships light weight LWT be derived given the Displacement DWT and the gross tonnageGRT?
It can't. Gross tonnage is a measure of volume, while displacement is a measure of weight. The light ship displacement is equal to the total displacement minus the deadweight.
Why does iron ship floats in water?
Because the weight of the water that they displace is greater than the weight of the ship.
What do i need besides my birth certificate to load a cruise ship?
a passport
