A $0.5\ kg$ mass of lead is submerged in a container filled to the brim with water and a block of wood floats on top. The lead mass is slowly lifted from the container by a thin wire and as it emerges into air the level of the water in the container drops a bit. The lead mass is now placed on the block of wood. As the lead is placed on the wood.
