A wooden piece floats half submerged in a tub of water. If the system is transferred to a lift ascending with acceleration the wooden piece will

A

Sink a little more

B

Rise a little

C

Remain half submerged

D

Sink to the bottom

Solution

As the system will move with an acceleration, $a$ then psuedo force will cause same acceleration, $a$ to both the water and block so no extra force by the block will be applied to water so no more submerging.

So option $\mathrm{C}$ is correct.
