    @rusnacko
    initially we have:
    m(rock)*g + M (boat)*g = V1 (initial displaced water) *rho(water) *g
    after throwing out the rock IN THE WATER :M(boat) * g = Vb (water displaced by the boat only) * rho(water)*g
    and V2(total displaced water with rock in the water) = Vb + V(rock)
    finally we have :
    V1 – V2 = m(rock)/rho(water) – V(rock)
    V1-V2 = V(rock)*[rho(rock)-rho(water)]/rho(water) since rho(rock)-rho(water) > 0 => V1>V2 => the waterline goes down

    They’ll get some of their 25000 U$S comission back AHAHA just by showing that the balloon goes forward when you accelerate your car! I don’t think that it would be enough satisfy my parents, profesor!

    You’re great!!! I ve learned so much because of you. Thank you, Walter! Thank you, MIT! =)

    actualy in a ship how ever center of mass is higher than boulian center. it has to have a nice metacenter, having too long will be too shaky and too low will be dangerous

    Yes, thank you, …
    Yes, thank you, that is indeed much easier to understand. Very cute problem anyway.

  23. OJReadMore Says:

    edit: gah typos :D
    edit: gah typos :D that’s m(rock)/rho(water)…not minus

  24. OJReadMore Says:

    I can also confirm …
    I can also confirm your calculation is correct for the boat problem. Thank you so much rusnacko! I’d like to manipulate one of your equations to make it look easier to understand:

    V(after) = V(before) – m(rock)/rho(water)

    You can see here rusnacko was right, the term m(rock)-rho(water) will lower the inital volume.

    edit: sorry, it is not Pascal`s, but Archimedes` principle. :)
