Question

why is it that when you lower a stone gently into water the level of the water rises

Answer 1

Explanation:

When we drop a stone in water the level of water rises because stone is matter and it has mass and volume.

When we drop stone in water the displacement of water occurs equivalent to the volume of stone.

When stone settled at the bottom of water then it occupies space of water. Because the stone specific gravity is more than water.

Therefore the water level rise.
