A. An object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force : The momentum of an object is constant unless an outside force acts on the object.

B. Force is defined as mass times acceleration : the rate of change of the momentum of a particle is proportional to the force F acting on it, hence the force is equal to <span>mass times acceleration.

C. </span>For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction : <span>to every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force. </span>

A spring with spring constant 33N/m is attached to the ceiling, and a 4.8-cm-diameter, 1.5kg metal cylinder is attached to its l
mylen [45]

Answer:

0.423m

Explanation:

Conversion to metric unit

d = 4.8 cm = 0.048m

Let water density be \who_w = 1000 kg/m^3

Let gravitational acceleration g = 9.8 m/s2

Let x (m) be the length that the spring is stretched in equilibrium, x is also the length of the cylinder that is submerged in water since originally at a non-stretching position, the cylinder barely touches the water surface.

Now that the system is in equilibrium, the spring force and buoyancy force must equal to the gravity force of the cylinder. We have the following force equation:

F_s + F_b = W

Where F_s = kxN is the spring force, F_b = W_w = m_wg = \rho_w V_s g is the buoyancy force, which equals to the weight W_w of the water displaced by the submerged portion of the cylinder, which is the product of water density \rho_w, submerged volume V_s and gravitational constant g. W = mg is the weight of the metal cylinder.

kx + \rho_w V_s g = mg

The submerged volume would be the product of cross-section area and the submerged length x

V_s = Ax = \pi(d/2)^2x

Plug that into our force equation and we have

kx + \rho_w \pi(d/2)^2x g = mg

x(k + \rho_w g \pi d^2/4) = mg

x = \frac{m}{(k/g) + (\rho_w\pi d^2/4)} = \frac{1.5}{(33/9.8) + (100*\pi * 0.048^2/4)} = 0.423 m
