A freshwater tank on a ship is a storage compartment specifically designed to hold potable water for the crew and passengers. This water is used for drinking, cooking, and sanitation purposes. Freshwater tanks can be filled from shore supplies or produced onboard through desalination processes. Proper management and maintenance of these tanks are crucial to ensure water quality and safety during a voyage.

What is the purpose of main engine fresh water expansion tank?
to circulate water in fresh water tank to expansion talk.
What happens when a ship sails from seawater to fresh water?
When a ship sails from seawater to fresh water, the buoyancy of the ship increases because fresh water is less dense than seawater. This can cause the ship to ride higher in the water. Additionally, there may be a slight increase in the ship's speed due to the lower density of the fresh water offering less resistance to the hull.
How do you convert a salt water fish tank into a fresh water tank?

Why a ship sinks in the fresh water than the sea water?
A ship sinks faster in fresh water than in salt water because fresh water is less dense than salt water. This means that in fresh water, there is less buoyant force acting on the ship, causing it to sink more quickly. Salt water, being denser, provides more buoyant force which helps keep the ship afloat for longer.
Can fresh water mussels live in goldfish tank with goldfish in the tank?
Yes
Can you change a fresh water fish tank into a salt water tank?
i dont really know sorry
Will the ship sink further into the seawater than if it was in fresh water?
The ship will sink slightly. Salt water is denser there for heavy objects will float more in it. When the ship goes back to fresh water the density decreases and the ship lowers again. This link gives extra information and some simple experiments for you to try at home. http://www.kidsgen.com/school_projects/how_ships_float.htm
Where does a cruise ship get fresh water?
They get it from a desalination plant onboard a mighty fine ship.
What happens if a single celled organism is transferred from a tank of fresh water to a tank of salt water?
It will swell and burst
What happens to a fresh water fish when put in a salt water tank?
they will die
What would happen if a single celled organism was transferred from a fresh tank of water to a tank of salt water?
it would shrink
Why is it that ship floats deeper in fresh water than in the sea water?
A ship floats deeper in fresh water than in sea water because fresh water is less dense than sea water due to a lower concentration of salts and minerals. This lower density causes less buoyant force to be exerted on the ship, making it float deeper in fresh water in order to displace an equivalent volume of the less dense liquid.
