A rectangular barge 7 m long and 2 m wide floats in fresh water how much deeper does it float when its load is a 400 kg horse?
Consider the following - a submerged object displaces its volume, but a floating object displaces its weight. You also know (or can assume) the load is evenly distributed. So you can take the weight of the load (the horse) and apportion the displacement evenly across the boat. Now you are better prepared to calculate the answer.

Why does the oak wood float on water but not on paraffin?

If that is what you meant, the answer is: There are absorbent substances which float when dry, then after absorbing water while they are floating, they increase in density and then sink.
