Explanation:

The total resistance Rt is given by

1/Rt = 1/Ra + 1/Rb + 1/Rc = 1/5 + 1/4 + 1/7 = 0.593

or Rt = 1.69 ohms

The total current I running through the circuit is

I = V/Rt = 2.37 A

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

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 $F_s = kx$ N 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.
