The weight of the container of water, as shown in (a), is equal to the weight of the stand and the suspended solid iron ball. When the suspended ball is lowered into the water, as shown in (b), the balance is upset. Challenge your friends and ask if the additional weight needed on the right side to restore balance is greater than, equal to, or less than the weight of the solid iron ball.
