Why when you put piece of stone in a glass full of water an amount of water is spilled out of the glass?
anything with matter takes up space. two objects cannot occupy the same space, I mean it wouldn't be funny if that guy not paying attention just walked through the pole instead of smashing into it right? So, when you drop a rock in the cup, the cup still only has the same amount of space to give up, but now the rock and the water are competing for that space. Well the rock is denser, so it sinks, pushing the water out of the way and causing it to rise. If you want to see this happen where the water wins, try putting a ping pong ball in the glass. You'll notice now its the water that remains in the glass and the ball that is sticking out of the cup.

What happens when you drop a piece of stone in a glass half filled with water?
When you drop a piece of stone into a glass half filled with water, the stone will displace some of the water, causing the water level to rise. This is known as the principle of displacement. The amount of water displaced will be equal to the volume of the stone that is submerged.
Why the glass of water overflowed if stone dropped?
If the glass is even partially filled a stone thrown at sufficient speed will splash water below the kinetic energy of the stone will be dissipated by transferring it to the water. However if the stone is gently dropped into the glass of water (and it was full or nearly full) then the stone which is not soluble in water will displace an amount of water equal to its volume which will overflow.
How would you find the volume of a stone by using water displacement?
Place a rock in a container, add water, and record the volume.Pour an unknown amount of water into a glass container, add the rock, and note the water level; the unknown amount of water plus the weight of the rock is the volume of the rock.Pour a known amount of water into a glass container, add the rock, and note the new water level; the difference in water levels is the volume of the rock.Water displacement will not work.

What is 7 stone converted into kg?
