    Default jumbo doom, i need help!

    So im studying for my chm/m unlimited exam and the Jumbo boom questions in the stability problems in throwing me for a loop, can anyone help? What is the formula to use when they ask for the gm of the stowed cargo?
    Is it just: GM=weightxdist./displacementxtan of the angle ? Sometimes this works....anyone? Thanks

    Hi,
    If you can post the actual question, and/or question number folks may be able to help. I did post a link to an electronic book on stability a while back...I will look for it again. I just put all of my books in storage two days ago.
