Current Question (ID: 10524)

Question:
$\text{A boat carrying steel balls is floating on the surface of water in a tank. If the balls are thrown into the tank one by one, how will it affect the level of water?}$
Options:
  • 1. $\text{It will remain unchanged}$
  • 2. $\text{It will rise}$
  • 3. $\text{It will fall}$
  • 4. $\text{First it will first rise and then fall}$
Solution:
$\text{When the steel balls are in the boat, they displace water equal to their weight according to Archimedes' principle:}$ $\rho_{ball} \times V_{ball} \times g = \rho_{water} \times V_{displaced} \times g$ $\text{As } \rho_{ball} > \rho_{water}$ $V_{displaced} > V_{ball}$ $\text{When the balls are thrown into the tank, they sink and displace water equal to their own volume.}$ $\text{Since the volume of water displaced when the balls were in the boat is greater than the volume displaced when they sink,}$ $\text{the water level falls.}$
