External Forces

101
Q

What is a vessel’s righting moment?

A

Force causing a vessel to react against a roll and return to an even keel.

102
Q

What type of lean is a is a “list”?

A

Permanent

103
Q

What type of lean is a is a “heel”?

A

Temporary

104
Q

What is metacenter?

A

The intersection of the vertical line through the center of buoyancy and the vertical centerline is called the metacenter.

105
Q

What is free surface affect?

A

The detrimental effect on which a partially filled tank or compartment can have on the stability of a vessel.

106
Q

What is free communication with the sea?

A

The negative effect on stability caused by the rupture of one, or more, exterior boundaries of a ship so that the sea may flow freely into, and out of the damaged compartment as the ship roles.

107
Q

What is down flooding?

A

Down flooding is the entry of water into the hull, resulting in progressive flooding and loss of stability.

108
Q

What is a restricted maneuvering doctrine?

A

A written agreement between the CO and EO regarding the level of initial casualty control actions to be taken during periods of restricted maneuverability. It covers the particular machinery that the engine room can take control of in the event of a casualty.

109
Q

What is the distance of a tenth of a nautical mile in yards?

A

200 yards

110
Q

Are Standing Orders, Cutter Navigation Standards, CO/OIC Night Orders, and XO/XPO morning orders mandated?

A

Yes, in accordance with Coast Guard Regulations Article 4-2-2A and Coast Guard Navigation Standards, COMDTINST M3530.2

111
Q

What is the free surface effect?

A

The term free surface effect refers to the determinable effect on which a partially filled tank or compartment can have on the stability of a vessel. The effect is due to the shifting of liquids as the vessel heels and results in the rise of the center of gravity.

112
Q

What is “KG” in reference to stability?

A

KG is the vertical position of gravity; the distance from the baseline (keel) to the center of gravity.

113
Q

Adding weight to the topside of a cutter will do what to KG?

A

Adding weight topside will move the center of gravity towards that weight addition. Removing weight will move the center of gravity away from the weight removal. Shifting weight will move the center of gravity parallel to, and in the same direction as the weight shift.

114
Q

What is the “metacenter”?

A

The metacenter is the center of the arc through which the centers of buoyancy move.

115
Q

What is the first thing you do when a cutter goes into dry-dock?

A

Hull inspection

116
Q

Where can you find guidance for stability on a WPB?

A

Stability and Loading Data Book.

117
Q

If your boat is in a foreign port and a local comes to your boat requesting asylum, what do you do?

A

Provide a safe haven; notify OPCON, and the liaison officer for that area.

118
Q

When does your compass need to be swung and what is the maximum deviation before it needs to be replaced?

A

Annually, after a yard availability with alterations, after hot work, and it is allowed 5 degrees.

119
