The United States possesses the ten largest warships in the world, aircraft carriers of the Nimitz class. Suppose one of the ships bobs up to float 11 cm higher in the ocean water when 50 fighters take off from it in a time interval of 25 min, at a location where the free-fall acceleration is 9.78 m/s^2. The planes have an average laden mass of 29,000 kg. Find the horizontal area enclosed by the waterline of the ship.

    Answer:The horizontal area enclosed by the waterline of the ship is 12,797.88m2

    Explanation: Mass of the ship=29000kg

    Total mass of 50 ships = 50*29000

    Total Mass=1450000kg

    Volume of water with mass = mass / density

    Assuming density of ocean water = 1030kgm3

    Volume=1450000/1030

    Volume=1407.77m3

    Area enclosed by the ship = A=V/h

    h=11cm=0.11m

    Area = 1407.77/0.11

    Area=12,797.88m2
