You’ve probably seen a syringe before. When its plunger is pressed, the contents of the syringe come out on the other end. In the demonstration below we have a syringe connected through a thin hose to another container that has a spring in it. The entire system is filled with water . As you increase the force on the plunger observe the little spring being compressed at the other end of the hose:
If the cargo is placed relatively low , it can actually significantly increase the stability of the ship. However, for some positions of cargo, the ship’s stable position is tilted to one side or the other, even though the geometry of the hull and carried load are perfectly symmetrical – that angle is known as angle of loll . When the cargo is placed very high this ship becomes completely unstable.
