STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Form Drag of a Vessel: 0.15 Kilonewton --> 150 Newton (Check conversion here)
Water Density: 1000 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 1000 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Form Drag Coefficient: 5 --> No Conversion Required
Vessel Draft: 1.68 Meter --> 1.68 Meter No Conversion Required
Average Current Speed: 728.2461 Meter per Hour --> 0.202290583333333 Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Angle of the Current: 1.15 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

B = F_{c, form}/(0.5*ρ_water*C_{c, form}*T*V_c^2*cos(θ_c)) --> 150/(0.5*1000*5*1.68*0.202290583333333^2*cos(1.15))

Evaluating ... ...

B = 2.1365444208452

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.1365444208452 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.1365444208452 ≈ 2.136544 Meter <-- Vessel Beam

What is Mooring in Shipping?

Mooring is a procedure to anchor the ship to a fixed or floating element and keep it connected during loading or unloading operations. Safe mooring must withstand several forces, such as wind, the current, the tide and waves.
