Question diagram: A vessel filled with water is placed on the edge of a board

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

The weight of the small board and the weight it carries are supported by the buoyant force from the water. According to Archimedes' principle, the buoyant force equals the weight of the fluid displaced. Therefore, the total downward force exerted by the vessel on the board remains unchanged. The equilibrium would not be violated.
