The liquid rises higher when a object is placed inside of it is because the mass of the object takes up space inside the liquid, which pushes the liquid in a direction that has space available.

When the block was placed in the liquid why did the liquid rise?
The matter of the block displaced the water causing the water to rise
Why are air conditioner placed in a higher level than a lower level?
Cold air will sink and hot air will rise. So ACs are placed up higher.
Does liquid water rinse higher in a narrow tube or a wide tube?
You mean rise not rinse. Higher in a narrow tube due to capillary action.
If the object is buoyant wil it tend to sink or float?
Buoyant means: Tending to float on a liquid or rise in air or gas
What is the tendency of an object to float?
Whether a material in any state of matter (solid, liquid or gas) will float in a liquid (or a gas) depends on the relative densities of the materials. (Density is defined as mass divided by volume.) If the density of the object is less than the density of the liquid it is placed in, the object will float. If the density of the object is greater than the density of the liquid, the object will sink. If the densities are the same, the object will remain stationary assuming there are no other forces acting on it. For a few examples, a plank of wood is (generally) less dense than water, so it would float. A balloon filled with Helium is less dense than air, so it rises. A ball of lead is more dense than water, so it sinks. You can even float a liquid on top of another liquid if their densities are different.
What happens if you mix liquid that have different densities?
The liquid with the higher density will stay down while the one with the lower density will rise up, thus stratifying the liquids into different layers.
Is rise used in the form of a direct object?
Yes, the noun 'rise' can function as the direct object of a verb. Example: We have witnessed a rise in public awareness following the tragedy. (the noun 'rise' is the direct object of the verb 'have witnessed')
Why does a liquid rise in a medicine dropper when you release the bulb?
why does liquid rise in medicine dropper when we release the bulb of the dropper
Why there is capillary action and why the effect is greater for narrower tubes?
Liquid rises in and out of cappilarry to compansate pressure difference. Rise of a liquid in capillary is indirectly proportional to radius of tube so liquid goes higher in a narrow tube.
What are the rules of buoyancy?
If the force of gravity is greater than the buoyant force, the object will sink. If the buoyant force is greater than the force of gravity, the object will rise. If the force of gravity equals the buoyant force (neutral buoyancy), the object will float.
When an object is placed in a liquid what happens?
A1) It becomes wet.A2) a) It might react with the liquid. for example if a piece of Calcium carbide is added to water, it will react to produce acetylene gas and a slurry of Calcium hydroxide.b) Assuming the process is not reactive, then the object will displace its own volume in the volume of water. If I add a 1gm ice cube to some water, then the total weight will increase by 1 gram, and the level of the liquid will rise by the equivalent height, taking into account the area of the fluid surface.The added object may float or sink, dependent upon its density - wood will float, zinc will sink. For sinking objects, it will displace the same volume of water as is the volume of the object.c) Other effects may happen dependant upon whether the object and the liquid were the same temperature.d) Another effect is that if the object and the liquid have the same refractive index, then it will disappear in the liquid. This is the basis of a test to measure refractive index of glass shards recovered from a crime scene for example.
When heated bubbles rise to surface?
bubbles rise to the surface of a heated liquid as it changes to gas because they are less dense than the liquid.
