Answer #1

IT FALLS

when the anchor in the boat the volume of water is V1

after throws the water level can displaces then the volume of the water is V2

and it is equal to the volume of the anchor then can say V2 < V1

so the level of lake falls

Assuming that they each require the same volumeV of boat to accommodate them, show that the wetted area of the boat is A x (NV (here, as so often, the cox is ignored). Assuming inviscid flow, why might the drag force be proportional to pUA, where U is the speed of the boat and p the density of water? (In...
