As you can see, a cup is filled part way with water. When a few ice cubes are added into the cup, the water rises to where the blue dashed lines are because you're adding more weight, ice is heavier than water (same volume of course).

Question: Will the water rise over the dashed line, go below the dashed line, or stay the same, once all of the ice cubes melt?
