The center of mass G of the ship may be assumed to be at the center of the equivalent 50-ft square section. The metacentric height h, determined by the intersection M of the ship’s centerline with the line of action of the total buoyancy force acting through the center of buoyancy B, is 3 ft. Determine the period of one complete roll of the ship if the amplitude is small and the resistance of the water is neglected. Neglect also the change in cross section of the ship at the bow and stern, and treat the loaded ship as a uniform solid block of square cross section.
