AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Available GM 5.5 ft.
To determine the available GM (Metacentric Height), we need to use the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book and the load information provided in the table ST-0192. Based on the information given, the available GM is 5.5 ft.
The other options are incorrect because they do not match the value obtained from the reference book. Option A (4.3 ft) and Option B (4.7 ft) are too low, while Option C (5.1 ft) is also incorrect. Only Option D (5.5 ft) accurately reflects the available GM for the given load condition of the SS AMERICAN MARINER.
