Question
A ship is 150 m long and has a wet ted area of 5000 m.If it is encrusted with barnacles, the ship requires 7000 hp to overcome friction drag when
moving in seawater at 15 kn and 20 C. What is the average roughness of the barnacles? How fast would the ship move with the same power if the surface were smooth? Neglect wave drag.
