AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 5.8 feet. To determine the KG (vertical center of gravity) of the liquid load, we need to refer to the Stability Data Reference Book and locate the information for the SS AMERICAN MARINER's liquid load, which is provided in table ST-0129. By looking up the values in the white pages of the reference book, we can find the KG of the liquid load, which is listed as 5.8 feet. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not match the value provided in the reference book for the specific vessel and liquid load configuration.
