Question 19
A 16 cm by 15 cm by 17 cm rectangular container initially has water 2 cm deep. Two cubes of side 7 cm are put inside. What is the maximum rise in water level, in cm?
Model convention: solid, non-floating, axis-aligned cubes; conserved water, no trapped air or water. The question asks for the rise, not the final depth.
