Level of the water in the tank

Home

You're in a rowboat floating in a tank of water. There's a big rock in the boat and you decide to drop the rock into the water. The rock sinks to the bottom of the tank. Does the level of the water in the tank go up, down, or stay the same?

The rock is denser than water because it sinks. Therefore, it displaces less water than it did before, so the level in the tank goes down.
