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.

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

2960 N

Explanation:

Convert rev/min to rad/s:

150 rev/min × (2π rad/rev) × (1 min / 60 s) = 50π rad/s

Sum of forces in the centripetal direction:

∑F = ma

T = m v² / r

T = m ω² r

T = (0.2 kg) (50π rad/s)² (0.6 m)

T = 2960 N
