70% to pass

The SS AMERICAN MARINER has the liquid load shown in table ST-0155 below. Use the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book to determine the LCG-FP of the liquid load.

A 229.8 ft
B 236.7 ft
C 244.6 ft
D 251.5 ft
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) 236.7 ft. To determine the LCG-FP (Longitudinal Center of Gravity from Forward Perpendicular) of the liquid load, we need to reference the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book and locate the information for the "SS AMERICAN MARINER" based on the given liquid load table ST-0155. The white pages provide the necessary data to calculate the LCG-FP, and the value provided for the given liquid load configuration is 236.7 ft. This makes B) the correct answer. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the value found in the reference book for the specific liquid load scenario provided.
