aw GZ and BR perpendicular to the vertical throughB, and gh,^K perpendicular to the new water-line WL. Then Statical Stability, Curves of Stability, etc. 159 the moment of the couple tending to right the ship is W x GZ,or, as we term it, the moment of statical stability. Now— GZ = BR - BP = BR - BG… … Fig. 67. new volume of displacement WAL is obtained from the oldvolume WAL by shifting the volume WSW to the positionLSL, through a horizontal distance JiH. Therefore the hori-zontal shift of the centre of gravity of the immersed volumefrom its original position at B, or BR, is given by— V X hH BR…
