- When the anchor is submerged,
the volume water displaced by the anchor is equal to the volume of
the anchor. When the anchor is in the boat, the weight of water displaced
is equal to the weight of the anchor. Therefore, more water is displaced
when the anchor is in the boat, and the water level in
the lake goes down when the anchor
is thrown overboard.
