q(b)

Aircraft Fuselage Aircraft Hull Figure 3 a) Consider two large hull as in Figure 3 above made of foam for Amphibian Aircraft has a volume of 80 m3 each, and the total mass of the aircraft when empty is 7000 kg. Determine how much luggage this Amphibian Aircraft can carry without sinking when landing (i) in the lake which have fresh water and (ii) in seawater with a specific gravity of 1.03. b) Please analyse and give the recommendation on the stability of the aircraft when landing in the water if the luggage compartment has been fully filled. The luggage compartment has been located at the centre of the aircraft fuselage. Hìnt: Draw locations of centre of gravity (CG) and centre of buoyancy (CB) to support your answer.
