A graduated cylinder filled with water rests upside down in a container of water at 0 C. The water is 7.00 cm deep. Attached to the base of the cylinder is a small ring (but since the cylinder is upside down, the ring is at the highest elevation, available for grabbing). The base of the cylinder has mass 10.0 grams with ring included. The cylinder itself has radius 3.00 cm, height 40.0 cm, and mass 100.0 grams (including the base...

A spring with spring constant 32 N/m is attached to the ceiling, and a 4.7-cm-diameter, 1.2 kg metal cylinder is attached to its lower end. The cylinder is held so that the spring is neither stretched nor compressed, then a tank of water is placed underneath with the surface of the water just touching the bottom of the cylinder. When released, the cylinder will oscillate a few times but, damped by the water, quickly reach an equilibrium position. When in...
