And quite how you worked out that an ice cube melting in a glass of water would not raise the water level is beyond me, unless you watched it for so long that the water evaporated.
Hope that flameproof suit works well.  |
Most of the ice is already below the water and therefore it's already raised the level, when it melts, the raise will only be from the equivalent water in the exposed part of the ice, which isn't actually that much.
