w1 = (GM*Wfv*tan(θ))/(D)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 Variables
Functions Used
tan - The tangent of an angle is a trigonometric ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the side adjacent to an angle in a right triangle., tan(Angle)
Variables Used
Movable Weight on Floating Vessel - (Measured in Newton) - Movable Weight on Floating Vessel is a known weight placed over the center of the vessel floating on the liquid or fluid.
Metacentric Height of Floating Body - (Measured in Meter) - The Metacentric Height of Floating Body is defined as the vertical distance between the center of gravity of a body and the metacenter of that body.
Weight of Floating Vessel - (Measured in Newton) - The Weight of Floating Vessel is defined as the weight of the vessel floating onto the fluid including the weight placed over the center of the vessel floating on the liquid or fluid.
Angle of Heel - (Measured in Radian) - The Angle of Heel is the tilted angle of the body in a fluid or liquid.
Distance Travelled by Weight on Vessel - (Measured in Meter) - Distance travelled by weight on vessel defines how much path the movable weight has covered onto the floating vessel.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Metacentric Height of Floating Body: 0.7 Meter --> 0.7 Meter No Conversion Required
Weight of Floating Vessel: 19620 Newton --> 19620 Newton No Conversion Required
Angle of Heel: 8.24 Degree --> 0.143815130364306 Radian (Check conversion here)
Distance Travelled by Weight on Vessel: 5.8 Meter --> 5.8 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
w1 = (GM*Wfv*tan(θ))/(D) --> (0.7*19620*tan(0.143815130364306))/(5.8)
Evaluating ... ...
