$A$ wide-bottomed cylindrical massless plastic container of height $9 \, cm$ contains $40$ identical coins and is floating on water with $3 \, cm$ of its height submerged. If we start placing additional identical coins on its lid,it is observed that after $N$ coins are added,the equilibrium changes from stable to unstable. Equilibrium in floating is stable if the geometric centre of the submerged portion is above the centre of mass of the object. The value of $N$ is closest to:
