Y. 161 109. Curves of Statical and Dynamical Stability. In these curves, drawn in fig. 40 for the vessel infig. 39, the abscissa represents the angle of inclinationin degrees, while the ordinate in the curve of staticalstability represents the arm GZ of the corresponding right-ing couple at this… … 4.0- 88\<)6 Fig. 40. Since the work done by a constant couple is the pro-duct of the couple and of the circular measure of theangle through which it works, the ordinate of the curve ofdynamical stability will be proportioned to the area ofthe curve of statical stability bounded by the final…
