What is Stability of Floating Bodies Experiment about?

Here are the key steps in the procedure: 1. Place the horizontal weight ω at the center of the pontoon/barge (xG = 0). 2. With the vertical weights Wy well below the stable limit, provide a small tilt θ and check if the pontoon returns to the horizontal position (stable). 3. Incrementally raise Wy in small steps, rechecking stability each time by providing a small tilt. 4. Record the minimum vertical position of Wy where the pontoon becomes unstable and fails to return to the horizontal. 5. Repeat
