Detailed Solution

Density of ice is in between that of water and liquid.Pressure at ice -liquid  interface is more than the pressure at liquid -water interface .Due to this volume of water displaced by ice is less than the volume of water displaced by the ice block when it freely floats on water surface . Decrease in H2 more than the increase in H1 .
