Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Derive a formula for the change in the pond depth and explain whether the level of pond rise or fall.

Concept introduction:

Archimedes’ Principle is defined as:

The upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces or weight of the body immersed in a fluid.

This can be rewritten as,

Buoyant force (up) = Weight of block (down)

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Derive a formula for the change in the height of the bottom of the boat and bottom of the pond. Explain your answer.
