A circular log floating in water is neutrally buoyant. Our ancestors found that by having half a log with semi-circular cross section and hollowing out the interior, it became stable so that they could use it to migrate across oceans. The reasons for it to become stable are: (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) It lowers the centre of gravity G so that it is below the centre of buoyancy B. It lowers the centre of gravity G so that it is below the metacentre M. It increases the metacentric radius BM. It enables the shifting of the centre of buoyancy B laterally to produce a restoring moment when it is tilted. (A) (B) (C) (D) (i) and (ii) (ii) and (iii) (iii) and (iv) (iv) and (i)

A vessel going from salt to freshwater sinks 5cm, then after burning 500kn of coal rises 2.5cm. What is the original weight of the vessel? Assume that the cross-sectional area of the vessel near the water surface is constant. Unit wt of seawater=10.10 kN/m^3.
A three wheeled OTV has been designed such that the forces from the wheels and motors are uniform, hence the reaction forces at the point of contact with the upper surface can be modeled as a single vertical reaction support. The platform is a square with side length 200mm and has a thickness of 20mm. Plywood has a density of 0.3 g/cm^3. For the purposes of finding the platform weight, W, ignore any holes in the plywood for motor mounts. Due to a misscommunication in the team, the motor mounts M1, M2, and M3 were not attached symmetrically! The potential consequences of this are a difference in reaction forces at the platform to keep it balanced. This difference in reaction forces will result a different normal force at each wheel, and hence the potential for different traction forces, leading to an inability to drive the OTV straight.
