Why was petrol slowly emptied into the water ?
Answer: C
The petrol was emptied slowly to make the bathyscaphe heavy.
The passage says the tank of petrol was slowly emptied into the water to make the bathyscaphe heavy enough to complete its journey. As the petrol left, the craft became heavier and sank.
The petrol is not described as fuel for the ball, as protection from fire or as a way of holding the ball in place, so options A, B and D go beyond the passage.
