5 MIDTERM

Which parameter helps measure advance, transfer, tactical diameter, and more during a ship's maneuver?

What factors are essential in the pre-anchoring stage? (I.) Anchor to use (II.) Depth of water

The method and specifics of anchoring are crucial for preparation. What must be determined? (I.) Method of anchoring (II.) Final amount of cables

Regarding squat, which statements hold true? (I.) In open sea there is no problem for the water to flow under the hull (II.) In shallow water, the flow of water under the hull is restricted

Which are the indicative signs of a vessel operating in shallow waters and encountering squat? (I.) Ship's steering becomes sluggish. That is, it becomes comparatively difficult to steer the ship (II.) The ship may start to vibrate

What is termed as the proper control art of a ship while underway?

For a ship with a block coefficient greater than .70 in an even keel, stationary state, the squat effect manifests as:

To assure safety and efficiency during anchoring, especially at night, which precautions are vital?(I.) Check anchor shape/light (II.) Check lighting on forecastle including torch, at night

If the block coefficient of a stationary ship in an even keel state is precisely .70, the squat effect will be:

Which attributes play a role in determining the extent of squat experienced? (I.) Ships block coefficient (II.) Shallow water

Which factors can be controlled by the ship handler? (I.) Engine Power/Speed (II.) Type of propeller and its effect

To mitigate the effects of squat, what action(s) should be taken? (I.) Slow down (II.) Speed up

Which maneuver describes the reduction in a ship's headway until it stops without employing astern propulsion?

In which scenario(s) does squat occur? (I.) When a vessel is making speed through the water (II.) When a vessel is moored

Which of these factors is directly influenced by the ship handler? (I.) Rudder Movement (II.) Set and Drift

Which factors are not under the direct control of the ship handler? (I.) Steering (II.) Action of tides

In terms of water conditions, which affects squat the most? (I.) Unrestricted water (II.) Restricted water

In terms of water conditions, which affects squat the most? (I.) Unrestricted water (II.) Restricted water

When preparing for anchoring, which elements require attention? (I.) Approximate anchoring position (II.) Method of approach

When does squat occurs? (I.) When a vessel is making speed through the water (II.) When a vessel is not making speed but laying in flowing water

Under what circumstances does the turning motion of a ship occur? (I.) Ship is moved sideways by a rudder or a bow thruster (II.) Tugboats are employed

A ship with a block coefficient less than .70, when stationary and even keel, experiences squat in the form of:

Before the anchor is released, what confirmations must be made for a safe anchoring process?(I.) The Chief Officer shall confirm that there is no craft or any obstacle under the bow and inform to the Bridge. (II.) The Master shall ensure that the vessels ground speed at the time of anchoring is near-zero or indicates a slight sternway

Which term refers to the ratio of a ship's immersed mid-section to the water cross-section of a canal or river

Which statements regarding the influence of squat on a ship are accurate? (I.) If the static trim is by head, the trimming effect due to squat will also be by head (II.) If the static trim is by stern, the trimming effect due to squat will also be by stern

By subtracting the echo sounder readings from the water's depth, what can be ascertained?

What factors can influence the magnitude of squat? (I.) Present water depth (II.) Ships speed through water

Among the following, which factors are beyond the ship handler's control? (I.) Current (II.) Wind

In ensuring a seamless anchoring process, what communication and check-ups are integral? (I.) Check communication with the bridge (II.) Check cargo valves

If the master inquires about the prevailing wind speed category, which scale would you use to determine it?

Given a vessel is berthed at a river with a water depth of 10m, and the tide is 1.5m with a UKC of 4m, how would you determine the ship's draft?

If a "crash stop" is ordered by the master during maneuvering, which position should the engine telegraph be set to as an OOW?

What primary intention drives the mooring of a vessel?

The phenomenon that describes the sinkage of a ship making headway in water is known as:

If the master inquiries about your ship's advance and transfer values, which bridge poster should you refer to as an OOW?
