A solid floats in a liquid of different material. Carry out an analysis to see wheather the level of liquid in the container will rise or fall when the solid melts.

Given that a solid floats in a liquid of different material.

Hence weight of solid floating = Weight of liquid displaced.

While solid floats, the liquid would have attained some level.

Now solid is melted it may have less volume or equal volume or more volume then volume of liquid displaced. Even then the level of liquid remain unchanged.
