Q. The Metacentric height is the distance between:

मेटासेन्ट्रिक ऊँचाई इनके बीच की दूरी है:

A
Center of gravity and center of buoyancy
गुरुत्वाकर्षण का केंद्र और उछाल का केंद्र
B
Center of gravity and metacenter
गुरुत्वाकर्षण का केंद्र और मेटासेंटर
C
Metacenter and center of buoyancy
मेटासेंटर और उछाल का केंद्र
D
None of these
इनमें से कोई नहीं

Explanation

Metacentric height (GM) = Distance between center of gravity (G) and metacenter (M).

It determines stability of floating bodies:
  • If M is above G, the body is stable.

  • Larger GM implies higher stability.
