Answer:

B

Explanation:

Water level remains unchanged

The first thing to realize is that the buoyancy force is the same as, or equal to the weight of the wood, this same force is also the same as or equal to the weight of the water displaced by the wood. In the two cases, the weight of the wood will be unaffected nonetheless, and thus the water level will remain the same.

Therefore, the answer is B, the water level remains unchanged.

The amount of dissolved oxygen in water may decrease because of the 
Elanso [62]
<span>The amount of dissolved oxygen in water may decrease because of the increase in organic matter in the water. <span>Aquatic organisms breathe and use oxygen. Large amounts of oxygen are consumed by the decomposition of bacteria (when there are large amounts of dead matter to decompose, there will be a significant number of bacteria). Examples: dead organic matter (algae), wastewater, garden waste, oils and fats, all this results in a decrease in dissolved oxygen in the water.</span></span>

An ideal spring is fixed at one end. A variable force F pulls on the spring. When the magnitude of F reaches a value of 43.8 N,
maw [93]

A force of 43.8 N is required to stretch the spring a distance of 15.5 cm = 0.155 m, so the spring constant <em>k</em> is

43.8 N = <em>k</em> (0.155 m)   ==>   <em>k</em> = (43.8 N) / (0.155 m) ≈ 283 N/m

The total work done on the spring to stretch it to 15.5 cm from equilibrium is

1/2 (283 N/m) (0.155 m)² ≈ 3.39 J

The total work needed to stretch the spring to 15.5 cm + 10.4 cm = 25.9 cm = 0.259 m from equilibrium would be

1/2 (283 N/m) (0.259 m)² ≈ 9.48 J

Then the additional work needed to stretch the spring 10.4 cm further is the difference, about 6.08 J.
