As shows a 100 g block of copper (ρ = 8900 kg/m3) and a 100 g block of aluminum (ρ = 2700 kg/m3) connected by a massless string that runs over two massless, frictionless pulleys. The two blocks exactly balance, since they have the same mass. Now suppose that the whole system is submerged in water. What will happen?
A. The copper block will fall, the aluminum block will rise.
