A boat with an anchor on board floats in a swimming pool that is somewhat wider than the boat does the water level in the pool move upward?

When the boat is first lowered gently onto the surface of the water, the surface level
rises slightly, regardless of the boat's size, shape, or weight, or what it has on board.
The boat floats because it has displaced an amount of water that weighs exactly as
much as the boat does. That means it has pushed some water out of some volume
that the boat now occupies. The water it pushed aside has to go somewhere, and
the surface level in the pool must rise.

What happen when the downward pull of gravity on an object is equal to the upward force of water?
The object floats in the water.
Why would some of the material in subducted plates rise to the surface in volcanoes?
The material is lighter and more buoyant and floats upward.
A piece of pine wood floats on the surface of a lake because the water exerts?
An upward force equal to the weight of the displacement water.
Why is there an upward force on objects water?
A floating object in water means its mass is smaller than water and therefore it floats. just like helium baloons float upward because it is lighter than air
What is the definition of a supine float in swimming?
a floating position on one's back with arms extended out to the sides and face upward.
Is floating bubbles are example of chemical change?
no, not really, the reason the bubble floats is because of the hot air slowly moving upward. there are no chemical processes going on
How an upward force is created on object submerged in water?
There will be no force created.It is the density of the object to make itself float.Not theupward force which makes the object floats.
Give an example bouoyancy?
Upward push on an object by the liquid is in (to Float).
What is the physics in swimming?
For every action there is an equal but opposite reaction. All of newtons laws aply as well as achemedes principle
How does ship stay afloat?
The ship floats because of its large volume which displaces an amount of water that is more than its weight. That creates an upward force called buoyant force which keeps the ship on the surface.
F the buoyant force is greater than the force of gravity on an object then the object?
accelerates upward, and may shoot up out of the water.If the buoyant force is equal to the force of gravity, then the object floats right there.
How high can a ball go?
The maximum height of a thrown ball is dependent on the upward portion of the initial velocity. Air friction will slow it somewhat but gravity will cause it to lose most of its upward velocity. The velocity will decrease by 9.8 m/sec for each second of its upward motion, until it reaches zero. At that point, the ball is pulled back toward Earth.
