B
Rises
b (b)The volume of liquid displaced by floating ice ${V_D} = \frac{M}{{{\sigma _L}}}$
Volume of water formed by melting ice, ${V_F} = \frac{M}{{{\sigma _W}}}$
If ${\sigma _1} > {\sigma _W},$then, $\frac{M}{{{\sigma _L}}} < \frac{M}{{{\sigma _W}}}$i.e. ${V_D} < {V_F}$
i.e. volume of liquid displaced by floating ice will be lesser than water formed and so the level if liquid will rise.

A siphon in use is demonstrated in the following figure. The density of the liquid flowing in siphon is $ 1.5 gm/cc. $ The pressure difference between the point $P$ and $S$ will be
A rectangular block is $5 cm × 5 cm × 10cm$ in size. The block is floating in water with $ 5 cm $ side vertical. If it floats with $10 cm $ side vertical, what change will occur in the level of water?
The pressure at the bottom of a tank of water is $3P$ where $P$ is the atmospheric pressure . If the water is drawn out till the level of water is lowered by one fifth., the pressure at the bottom of the tank will now be
A hydraulic press can lift $100\, kg$ when a mass $'m'$ is placed on the smaller piston. It can lift ......... $kg$ when the diameter of the larger piston is increased by $4$ times and that of the smaller piston is decreased by $4$ times keeping the same mass $'m'$ on the smaller piston.
An open $U$-tube contains mercury. When $13.6 \,cm$ of water is poured into one of the arms of the tube, then the mercury rise in the other arm from its initial level is ....... $cm$
A vertical $U-$ tube of uniform inner cross section contains mercury in both sides of its arms. A glycerin (density = $1.3 g/cm^3$) column of length $10 $ $cm $ is introduced into one of its arms. Oil of density $0.8 gm/cm^3$ is poured into the other arm until the upper surfaces of the oil and glycerin are in the same horizontal level. Find the length of the oil column ........ $cm$. Density of mercury = $13.6 g/cm^3$
A particle released from rest is falling through a thick fluid under gravity. The fluid exerts a resistive force on the particle proportional to the square of its speed. Which one of the following graphs best depicts the variation of its speed $v$ with time $t$ ?
An $ L-$ shaped glass tube is just immersed in flowing water such that its opening is pointing against flowing water. If the speed of water current is $v$, then
A vertical triangular plate $ABC$ is placed inside water with side $BC$ parallel to water surface as shown. The force on one surface of plate by water is (density of water is $\rho $ and atmospheric pressure $P_0$ )
A hollow sphere of radius $R$ is filled completely with an ideal liquid of density $\rho$. sphere is moving horizontally with an acceleration $2g,$ where $g$ is acceleration due to gravity in the space. If minimum pressure of liquid is $P_0$, then pressure at the centre of sphere is
