Answer:
I think that the centre of mass is the point at which the distribution of mass is equal in all directions, and does not depend on gravitational field. Centre of gravity is the point at which the distribution of weight is equal in all directions, and does depend on gravitational field
Answer: 24.5 cm
Explanation:
Given
Force constant of spring, k = 40 N/m
Diameter of spring, d = 5.1 cm = 0.051 m
Mass of cylinder, m = 1.5 kg
Let us assume that the cylinder is hanging in such a way that the circular end is parallel with the water. Also, we assume that the tank water level is not materially affected by the displacement of the cylinder while the cylinder sinks. The water is fresh and as we all know, the density of water is 1000 kg/m³
To solve this, we assume x to be the spring extension and it's equivalent sinking distance(in meters). We then apply the formula,
mg = kx + ρgAx
mg = x(k + ρgA)
x = mg / (k + ρgA), where
A = πd²/4
A = (3.142 * 0.051²)/4
A = 0.0082 / 4
A = 0.00205 m²
x = 1.5 * 9.81 / [40 + (1000 * 9.81 * 0.00205)]
x = 14.715 / (40 + 20.1105)
x = 14.715 / 60.1105
x = 0.245 m
or 24.5 cm of stretch or sinking
