hi.. ice cant be sumbmerged into water by itself .. unless by an extrernal force on it...

Hence it tends to float on the surface of water .. since its density will be less than that of the water... the Eg:- relates to this is when the cover of orange fruit is half cleaved and left to float on water ... then it floats on the surface.. while the full cover cleaved orange willjust submere into water directly.... this is due to orange is been covered with cover which is less dense than water....!

What do you think would happen if the bottom of the glass had a hole in it you submerged it upside down in water?

If the glass has a hole in the bottom and you submerge it upside down in water, the water would enter the glass through the hole until the air pressure inside and outside the glass equalize. Once this happens, the water would stay at a level inside the glass equal to the height of the water outside the glass.
