Question
The level of boat in water is decided by net force on it by gravity (downward) and buoyant force (upward) by fluid.
Force of buoyant only depend on volume, density of water and (g) and all these quantities are constant here. So, it
remains constant but force of gravity (weight) decreases as mass is decreased W=mg
Since downward force decreases and upward force remains the same, a net upward force arises due to brick thrown
in water. As a result, the boat will float higher.
5. You have 3 blocks of different densities. Block A has a density PA
=
0.99, and block C has a density of Pc = 0.5

Do each of the blocks float in water? Water has a density of Pwater = 1.0-9
