* Section 3.4 - 3.5 METACENTERS THE INCLINING EXPERIMENT C L Go Bo MT F FB B1 G1 The short leg is G0G1 The long leg is G0MT The hypotenuse is G1MT tan F = G0G1 G0MT SO…. So far we’ve established that the angle of list can be found using the right triangle identified here: ...And so we can find the angle of list C L Go Bo MT F FB B1 G1 Up to now, however, G0MT has been given based upon a KG that has been provided. We’ll now see how KG can be found by determining G0MT This is done by the Inclining Experiment By using a known weight and placing it at a known distance an angl
