Why as a ship in harbour is being unloaded it slowly rises in higher?

As cargo is being unloaded, the weight of the ship decreases. This reduction in weight causes the ship to displace less water, resulting in a buoyant force that gradually lifts the ship higher in the water. This process continues until the ship reaches a new equilibrium where its weight is balanced by the buoyant force.

An unloaded ship is filled with sand at the bottom?

It is dangerous for a ship to be too lightly loaded because then it floats with less volume inside water. As a result,its centre of gravity is higher and it may get blown over on its side by strong winds.Therefore, an unloaded ship is filled with sand or stones,called ballast,at its bottom.This lowers its centre of gravity so that the equilibrium of ship becomes more stable.
