An Evergreen's rectangular barge with 6750 m² horizontal cross- sectional area at the water line has a draft of 12.58 m in sea water (10.05 kN/m³) when loaded to capacity. In the freshwater at the entrance of the Panama Canal, it was observed that ship draws 12.89 m. Unit weight of water is 9.80 kN/m³. 11. What is the weight of the barge and its cargo in kN? a. 865,250 c. 912,360 b. 824,360 d. 799,650 12. What is the displacement of the barge in freshwater in m³? c. 84,119 a. 86,458 b. 92,226 d. 102,102
