We talked about this is an old physics class of mine but I can't remember the explanation now: There's a stationary boat in a lake carrying an object (an anvil, say). I want to know what happens to the water level (height) when the anvil is thrown overboard.

What are the variables we have to look at? I'm thinking just the volumes: V1 of the boat and V2 of the anvil. Do we have to consider H20 density and/or weights of the boat and anvil? I seem to remember my teacher saying the water level of the lake will always do one or the other (rise or fall) no matter what. Is it that the level will always rise because the added volume being submerged displaces more water? But then there's less displacement when the boat rises, right? Arrgh...I'm not a scientist, but I'd really like to figure this one out :-)

Thanks in advance
Levi

They never have sharp edges unless broken, so why are these tiny rocks so smooth?
