An ice cube containing a galss ball is floating on the surface of water contained in a trough. The whole of the ice melts, the level of water in the trough

A

It will ramain unchanged

B

It will fall

C

It will rise

D

First it will and then rise

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For equilibrium of cube
` V_(ice) cc rho_(ice ) = V_(displaced )xx rho_(water)`
` :. V_("water") = V_("dispaced ")`
Hence (A) is correct .
